All the Doctors agreed that I would have had the attack years earlier had it not been to biking. You are a sick SOB. Mountain biking is an obvious hazard. It undoubtedly caused your heart attack, and probably also contributed to OTHER people's heart attacks, when you come around blind turns at too high a speed. By the way, you can get just as much health benefit from biking without going off-road. There is no excuse for mountain biking, which is a selfish and environmentally irresponsible activity. -- I am working on creating wildlife habitat that is off-limits to humans ("pure habitat").

By the way, you can get just as much health benefit from biking without going off-road. There is no excuse for mountain biking, which is a selfish and environmentally irresponsible activity. That is correct. just today I rode thru some areas where there were quails nesting. I made a detour to crush the eggs and make them leave the area. after that I ran over a couple of garter snakes. all in all it was a very good day |

I've already stated what one of the reasons is. And who said anything about suspension? That is an assumption on your part. You also assume that everyone who owns a MB is out to **** up the bush. You obviously have very little biking experience - mountain bike, racer or otherwise. |
