How many of us ride at fast speeds? or go mountain biking?
this is one thing that I love doing, I tend to ride my trek with 29'' tires around 30 miles per just for fun. i do alot of mountain biking because here in lakewood colorado we have really great trails Smile
I love riding up steep hills because it takes way more effort and has made me way stronger that i used to be. Here is a pic from the top of a small mountain a couple miles away from my house, in the back ground is my little brother Austin, and a little further into the back ground is Denver Colorado

Me and my bro' road today with my awesome uncle, road to the top of a long steep hill then to a relative's house then bombed down a hill... I was going at least 40mph because i was going faster than the red car behind me. I got to the bottom and realized that my rear brake was completely burned up from stopping! Stupid e decided to see if it was hot...

Being almost 4 times your age, I don't ride mountain bikes, but have been a cyclist for my entire adult life. I'm not sure how many miles I've accumulated over 45 years, but it's in the neighborhood of 80,000+. My longest trip was from western KY to Anchorage, AK.

I do, not nearly as much as you do though. Mostly because there is nowhere to ride offroad. Its harder for me to ride onroad with a mountain bike because of the large tires and suspension.

At our old house I would ride it on trails behind the railroad tracks in the back of the neighborhood. Through creeks, mud, sand, clay, all kinds of stuff.

I'll upload a picture of my bike tomorrow.

I still got my old Bridgestone RB-2 and my Nishiki Cascade both from 1990, don't ride much last couple years, been doing alot of disc golf. Had a set of inverted tread Continental Town & Country, just replace them with some Michelins.

here's a old photo from several years ago I remember having...was building a slot car track.
