It was intended to be the runabout while I restored my Jamis Explorer (early 90s). But after a few weeks riding I just downsized to the one bike. I live car free in Spokane WA. The old style MTB makes a rock solid bike for these streets. Eventually it will get a fork upgrade (whether another suspension or something cool like the Crust Clydesdale is unknown) and trekking bars.
I bought that same bike when I started a PhD. 1999 M50. Treated me well for a very long time.
