I certainly will. Having been away from bicycles for many years, I’m amazed at the trail development that’s taken place, and the number of eating and drinking establishments with patios backing up to the trails. As I said to friends, I overbought on the bike, it’s more than I need. But I wanted the versatility of something that can commute close to traffic speeds and go off pavement and be comfortable. I’ve been exploring paved, gravel, and dirt trails so far.Welcome kabob, that is a nice looking bike and a good one at that. On your travels, if you see something interesting, take photos and post them. Good luck.
A little squirrely yes, but I kinda like the adrenaline boost that comes with squirrely I did get myself in a little over my head exploring a single track trail that was very steep and not well maintained last week. A couple things amazed me. One, in granny gear and turbo mode I powered up some muddy STEEP incline that didn’t seem possible. And on the way back down hydraulic disc brakes kept me from eating dirt. I won’t hesitate to take gravel, but I don’t think I’ll do that particular dirt trail again.Nice pics! I'm curious to hear what you think of how the bike and Super Moto-x tires handles the gravel and dirt.
99% of my riding is on paved roads and paths so the tires have felt a little squirrelly to me when I've gotten into loose gravel.
