I am teasing. I attempt to play in the dirt, eat dirt, it is excellent crosstraining and makes me better at riding my bike with no handlebars.And it is also an excellent lesson in the miracles of our bodies, I bruise in the most magical colors.

You don't have to be great to get started, but you do have to get started to be great. -Lee J. Colan
I am too small. My DH is very tall and rides one and loves it. Although numerous folks swear up and down that at 5'3" I am tall enough, it is not so. For me anyway. When a 9er is small, it changes the position of the rider and makes the geometry like a beach cruiser. Not good.
There's an entire thread on the MTBR forums about "short" 29ers! You have to join to see most of the photos, though.
