I do all types of cycling. Road, Commuting, touring, mountain. and I always feel bad when I realize how little mountain biking I do compared to the others. When I think about going mountain biking, I get pumped and ready to jump on the bike and start pedaling. But then I think about having to drive there and get discouraged. I just don't feel like putting the bike in the car and driving to the trails, which aren't very close.

Compared to road riding, where I can just hop on and roll out of my driveway, all the effort of getting to mountain bike trails doesn't seem worth it. I just think... "I could load up the bike and drive to ride, or just ride...".

Because of this, I'm doing less mountain biking than i'd like to..

Do you guys get this too? or are you down the street from trails? Takes 40 min to an hour by car for me.
