I can't remember now. But really, just out of curiosity. How many of us are roadies, mtbikers, or both?

I voted Bi though I haven't been on the MTB for 3 months. There are just too many winding roads for the roadie in me to explore.

I ride road mainly, but occasionally venture into the dirt (especially during cyclocross season).
I don't do "freeride" though, don't want to ride on virgin land, and I don't do just downhil.

I ride my mtn bike on dirt and trails like it was a road bike. No crashing, jumping or large drops.... or small drop offs.
I don't know what to check above.

I ride a touring bike that has a mix of road (105/Ultegra) and mountain (XT) parts. It has no suspension and it has 700c wheels, so I guess it's road. 
I have a mountain bike as well, but it's never seen the off the road. I may rebuild it as a mountain bike someday and fix that, though.
