(that's what I call it when I crash while mountain biking...a mechanical)
I got this lovely bruise on my left thigh on the trails at Harbison near my house. There are some awesome trails there and I've decided I want to get back into mountain biking. In high school and middle school that is all I did. I was always on my bike.
There is one issue though. That bike I was on in High School is the same one I'm riding now. It has several issues with it and I will use them to justify them to you that I need a new bike.
Reasons I should get a new mountain bike:
- missing teeth on the chain rings (gears)
- messed up front rim
- the geometry doesn't fit my body well
- it is a hardtail
- it's 10+yrs old
- rear derailleur is shot
- no suspension from the front suspension
- still uses rim brakes

Ben that's gross.
Where's your first aid kit that we gave you when you did that 10 years ago?
