1st ride in a year
got me new mtbike after a year off and had ton of fun.
also realized how difficult mt bike trails can be. 8 miles and I was tired and beat up.
I have few skills left so the stress fear anxiety of falling did not help.
great time need a few adjustments.
ordered a new longer seat post.
sweet dirty beast
not bad for 20 yrs old.
