I ride rigid all the time. Tried a cheap Manitou suspension fork briefly 2003-2004 but was just like meh. Maybe someday I can afford a fancy suspension fork but 'til then I'll stick with rigid.
I took Dad's old MB-3 (lugged frame with Ritchey tubing) out for a ride over the holidays. It was too rad for words! Broke a toe clip at some point which made it slightly less rad after that
