I couldn't figure out for the life of me why I couldn't get my front tire off the ground, even when I virtually *sat* on my back tire... Then, at my hubby's suggestion, I weighed it. My steel horse weighs in at about 47#. at 120, I'm having the darnedest time playing with it, so camp might have to wait until I can trade my Belgian in for an Arabian. Ah well... I can always practice trackstands. Anyone hear of how Terry Susan B's handle that kind of riding? Does Terry MAKE a mtn bike?
