I did this mountain bike ride today: http://www.gjhikes.com/2013/03/great-pyramid-loop.html

I only dumped my bike twice, no blood, but if I hadn't been wearing a helmet I doubt that I would be here. Oh, and I need a new helmet now. But this was better than sex and believe me, I really like sex a lot! This trail taken at speed made any carnival ride I have been on seem bland and boring. I'm going to go soak now, I have a feeling I am going to be a tad stiff tomorrow.

Cute way to get us to click the link.

BIking is fun...but 'better than sex'? Nah!! You must not be doing it right, sugah.

This reminds me of my boyfriend's complaint that our Saturday afternoon bike rides are disruptive to what we used to do on Saturday afternoons. I'm all "So we'll just shift our routine a bit, dear."

Great ride Terry! And nice pics from the site too!

Nice ride. 2 hours for 5 miles? I am elite/expert MTB racer in Michigan wishing I had your terrain!! Keep the rubber side down! I always say, "when you don't think your ass can take it anymore, stand up and keep peddling!"

I'm scared to even try my bike. The last time I got on it, I thought the tires were going to burst, and I couldn't seem to maneuver it well. I haven't always had the best luck with bikes anyway. When I was young and in college, I bought one to ride around campus. I rode it for the first time from my campus apartment to the campus post office. When I arrived at the post office and stopped, I forgot to put my feet down and both me and the bike promptly fell over. It was soooo embarrassing.

Think I'll stick to walking for now.

LMBO!!! too funny!!! glad you are ok though!!!

Actually the article was for hiking. The trail was listed as beginner/intermediate and while there were some technical challenges, nothing really bad, I did the trail in about 45 minutes. BUT the Moab area is well known for it's mountain biking, ranging from beginner to "are you freaken kidding me?" There were a couple of rock climbs on this one that I got off and pushed my bike up, I'm sure someone could have made them, just not me.

Debbie, ever since the site was redesigned I can't find the appropriate forums any more, plus while there are aspects that are specific to each WLS, I don't think exercise is necessarily one of them which is why I shared it here. I still visit LB on a regular basis, I only post when I feel that I have something to add.

I would do just about anything to be able to live in that area! The MOAB has been a dream for me for years.

Yea, it is one of my favorite places on earth, and I haven't even been a Mountain Cyclist until last year.

You live there I take it?

I want to get back into biking but I have to disagree with you that its better than sex....sex will be always be the better exercise LOL
