city riding
I dunno, I have done both. As a young man, bicycle delivery work in S.F. on track and geared bikes. That was fun then, but since moving to the country, there is a joy about riding alone down long roads without having to address the oddball crazed city maniac driver on a tear. The challenge is in the varied terrain and your ability to surmount those challenges. Almost like the difference of Touring as opposed to Racing. Each has it's pleasures. I ride 60 miles a day at least and most days more over varied terrain and have never been in better shape, even when compared to my racing days. Maybe it is an age thing of been there and done that. I will admit that the city riding scene can be exciting though. Just not as fun for me anymore, everything concidered.
