Pedaling through a variety of routes and places taught me that the beautiful thing is not to accumulate heights and % gradient or kilometers, that the important thing was to add sensations.If at some point my passion for cycling exploded with Mountain bikes in Spain. Very nice moments discovering routes and paths through the mountains of Castellon. Sometimes I got lost or arrived at a place where I had to turn around to go back the way I had come. In any case, I learned to love riding a bike off the asphalt and the dose of adventure along the unexplored path.
Riding a bike is not sweating and burning calories, it is enjoying and feeling what surrounds me, so soon and naturally the feeling was to enjoy pedaling and enjoy it every day. With that enthusiasm I started riding my bike almost everywhere.
That's where my most militant and sensitive side was born in favor of cycling mobility, the bike, more than a sport or leisure, is a lever of social revolution for a more sustainable world.We will also be faced with the eternal dilemma of investing in good things, buying cheap, deciding and being a faithful follower of a brand or the one that is at hand to get through the problem. We have to define goals and know how far we want to go and how to get there, to prevent spending from skyrocketing to almost the price of another bike. The key is going to be making our MTB bike comfortable, because we are going to ride many kilometers with it. Practicality will take precedence over weight and aesthetics.
So, about the weight, whether carbon or aluminum, whether 26, 27 or 29, whether the suit fits this way or another, a piece of equipment in good condition, comfortable and safe is enough for me to enjoy the routes. in the mountains because I would waste time on something that is a matter for the Pro, not for what we want to enjoy life...riding a bike....
