Today's Ride

Somehow, I got it in my head that I'd like to try a 29-er, and that some front suspension might be nice again, and, above all, that modern MTB geometry sure does look comfy. Actually, I know it's comfy: I had a 650b MTB a few years ago. Anyway, when a 2015 RockHopper 29-er was recently advertised locally for a very tempting price, I got it. It needed a bit of work, and it sure wasn't kitted out with high end bling, but, as a way to try out 29-er-ing, it looked decent. Today's ride was its first proper outing.

Impressions: climbs very well (but it has a very low bottom gear), very comfortable, a bit slow. I'll do some riding on it over the summer and then decide what to do with it.
