Show me your Vintage Mountain Bike in the wild

I'll start here is my '87 Schwinn High Sierra on a check out ride today. I got it together this morning and rode it till dark. I had to call for a rescue since I had no lights. I threw in the cowboy because I thought it was cool

You might wish to consider amending your header.

Many forum readers, I just did, may read "MB" as shorthand for Motobecane.

My wife and I went camping for a few days at Findley State Park in Ohio. There is a 9 mile mountain bike trail that runs around the outer perimeter. No long climbs, but a lot of short ups and downs through numerous ravines. I'm more of a road rider, so I had enough after about 6 miles of it.
