Mountain Biker at heart, Roadie as a means to an ends.

I love riding and racing (occasionally) my mtn bike. I use my road bike to train.

I ride my mtn bike when I want to go solo (even in a group situation) I feel you're more secluded in the woods on a bike, good time to hammer and just think. I feel more in tune with everything around me when I'm on my mtn bike.

When I ride my road bike, it's usually with a group of 4 or 5 and we're constantly talking, pulling through and just more social. I do ride solo on the road, but it's usually only for about an hour and it's over before I really get in my "solo" groove. When I'm on the road, I'm usually concentrating on not getting hit by a car! That, or keeping track of my speed/cadence/heartrate.

I just feel more free on my mtn bike.
