Yay Wahine- I actually started on the mtb, got injured (car) and started swimming, didn't have the fitness to get on the mtb again, got a road bike, and now my first tri next weekend.

I have stayed away from the mtb the last month so I wouldn't get hurt before my race. Friday morning I went out on a fire road for a little spin. Almost ate it coming down when I hit some deep stuff from the fire dept grooming the road. But I managed to flick the bars just right and recovered.

Its bad enough I can't run right now with the dog bite, I don't need to crash on top of that!

Have fun! Don't get hurt!
