I live in Tampa, Florida...not many places to mountain bike around here. I own a mountain bike, however, I don't use it really. I am a road bike gal, but would like to try this just for something fun and different. If I were to use my mountain bike just to try it for the first time, other than stripping it down some, do you have any suggestions?
What about shoes and pedals? I use clipless on my RB, but what would you suggest for a beginner to the cyclocross?
All of your help is so appreciated.
Thanks!
