My LHT seems to do a pretty decent job of rolling my 330# down the trail, and I'm not as scared of riding my Kona Jake-the-Snake as I'd been for a while.
The latter bike was the one I really got my start on, and took me through 7 centuries and over 30,000 miles before I got married, settled down, bought a car (oops) and got fat. I probably should have just swapped some components on Jake to give it 3 rings up front... but I was feeling a bit depressed and fell into the "new bike will make me happy, right?" trap.
