Cycled everywhere when I was younger had mountain bikes but lived in an exceptionally flat area of England. Fast forward to now and I love in the Scottish Highlands and wanted to explore on a bike and see what the hills can feel like on two wheels
I went out for a few hours, mainly heading up hill on the fire roads and access roads for the wind farms and got to tackle one down hill section. Just incredible fun, mud splattering me head to toe I think I was doing stuff right so far as form on rough ground but there wasn't anything "technical" just a rough fairly steep downhill but it doesn't matter. At 38 I got to the bottom of the hill let out a whoop to echo around the glen had a snack and set off home buzzing.
I get it and I think I'm hooked

Nice! Maybe in time you’ll think about adding a dropper post as they add a dimension to biking I didn’t anticipate until I got one. Enjoy your new bike sessions!
Edit** I see you have a dropper.
