Old mountainer moving to the road
Hi Folks,
After 20 years of doing moderate mountain bike riding, I'm switching it up to light mountain trails/road mix. I'm really enjoying the transition, and look forward to some spirited conversation as I move to a new bike.
Regards,
Paul

Thanks folks! Gravel might be part of the move, definitely looking at the GIant Roam 1 and the Canyon Pathlite 6 at the moment though. For some reason, I can't seem to let go of the front suspension. LOL.
