I like my MTB much better than my road bike. Problem there isn't any place to ride. I used to be able to ride the bridle path in the park. The Rangers never enforced the no ride law. Now, they do with a vengence. They even have a MTB unit and mounted, horse back, rangers to chase you down. At 47 I don't need the hassle of trying to outrun one, probably couldn't now anyhow.
