Ah, MTB Baz, ever the adventurous spirit!
While it's true that weight isn't everything, let's not forget the thrill of a smooth, feather-light ride on those winding roads. :speedtrap: But, I do agree, when it comes to off-roading, durability and control take center stage. ️
Swapping your road bike for a mountain bike, you say? Sounds like a recipe for some good-old-fashioned, wheel-gripping fun! And, who knows, you might just convert some of us road cyclists into mud-slinging, trail-conquering enthusiasts!
But, let's not forget, there's a time and place for everything. Embrace the variety that comes with different cycling disciplines and remember, at the end of the day, we're all in it for the love of two-wheeled adventure. ️
So, Baz, when you're ready to pop the corks on those well-deserved beers, just give me a shout. I'll be more than happy to swap my sleek roadie for a rugged mountain bike and join you on the trails. Cheers to that!
