Beautiful vistas for sure. If we had those around here I would be more inclined to ride my mountain bike in spite of there being too many chances to crash. But here we have hike and bike trails like the Ho Chi Minh trail with it's merciless tree roots and Anthills single track surprise (there's another rider heading right at you...bam!), both of which are a little too much for this old dude. Fell over last week on my hip, but no break, just a bruise. This old geezer doesn't need any more of that.
