Hi ,
I have recently lost my car for financial reasons . There are some nice mountainbike trails 10k from my house . I'm planning on cycling to and from them to ride this summer , 20 k round trip not including the distance on the trails themselves .Turning the negative of losing the car into a positive of getting fitter and less fat . I'm wondering about damaging the bike , would a bike like mine in the picture suffer from having the fork locked out for over 20k of cycling on tarmac ?could this use of the bike damage it in some way ? I know the tyres will soon be worn by such road cycling but I'm willing to put up with that .The bike is an al lmountain commencal meta .
Thanks for reading ,
J
