Here is what got me back in the saddle. I never quit riding. I just took a 30 year break.
I was riding pretty much every day for 1-2 hours when it was warmer. With the cold snap here in KC that has dwindled down a little. I too am rearranging the basement to work on mounts, still stands and balance skill in the basement over the winter.
My goal is mainly to have fun. I want to do a little bit of trials/street/flatland/larking around on my 20” equinox street. If all goes well the UDC Santa should deliver my 24” Oracle Muni tomorrow so I will be getting off of the pavement.
I want to take it to what ever skill level I can acquire. I haven’t really set any limits. Right now I have no interest in touring/distance riding but who knows what the future may bring. My main goal is not to get hurt! The ground is a lot harder at 55.
