Cycling

Are any of you into cycling at all?

I've been into cycling for about 13 years as an adult.

I like to go gravel biking the most and ride on rail trails because they're a bit safer than the road. I do like road biking, as well. I also enjoy mountain biking, too.



I attached a photo of my most recent bike. It's a Trek Checkpoint Gravel Bike. It's like road bike and mountain bike combined.

It's not an e-bike but the shifting mechanism is electronic because they say it's more efficient. I don't really race so I haven't noticed much difference.

I love riding it, though!

I used to ride my old chrome moly Raleigh brand bike. It was a pretty heavy frame relative to frames, but I preferred it that way doing single track in the woods and hills.

I know a lot of people who still enjoy heavy mountain bikes.

My mountain bike is a Trek Marlin 29er. It's heavy but it gets me around on the trails very nicely!
