I also made the mistake of adding up the receipts, next time I won’t do that.

46 here. Got back into MTB 5 months ago after literally a 30 year gap. Riding a Grand Canyon 8 currently. Strangely, whilst I have a bad back (2 damaged discs in my lower back, big thanks to the army for that) so far my back has not given me any issues whilst riding. In fact I would even say it’s better now thanks to the workout. I’ve been a regular runner for the last 10 years, so my cardio is pretty good, but man are my leg muscles taking a beating; I’m using muscles I didn’t even know I had lol.

53 here. Just started to mix up my road cycling.
Loving it but still slow and tentative! Getting quicker and more confident every ride!

I (41m) sometimes ride with a guy that is 76 and he can be difficult to keep up with. Especially on the uphills.

Shit that’s fast – I never average more than about 20, 25 max.

My hardtail is about 26, any heavier and it would suck.
My friend Dale
I am, although I’m looking at a full suspension to round out the bikes. The hard tail is great but man my back takes a beating.
Yep 52 and just got done building mine up, I have named it “Overtime” since that was my entire summer work schedule with no MTB riding.
