I brought Machak with me on this trip for the touring part, but I have a mtn bike here, and yesterday evening Rowan and I went for a ride on the trails up toward the mountain behind his place. It was the first time in years and years that I've ridden a mtn bike on trails!! I struggled a bit, and was off and walking every time there was a fallen branch or something, or a bit of a narrow, rocky descent, so I definitely will not be entering any mtn bike races in the near future, but overall, it wasn't too bad.
