Re: Anyone have just a cx bike no mtb?
recently somehow ended up with a cannondale cx bike........riding it offroad on anything remotely rough was terrible. shaken to bloody bits.
a nice light xc mtb is perfect for the 1 bike. something like a Cube 29 Ltd. light as a road bike, and takes a 2.3 tyre for offroad.

any able bodied person wanting to use a ebike is not right. I used on for 3 years through ill health. I got rid as soon as I was able.

Re: With the onset of winter ...
I have spent 36 years just riding my bike. never raced, never timed myself, almost never stand up on the pedals. I don't want to go fast on my bike......you miss far too much when travelling quickly.
