a bike I can ride out my front door, up Conwy Mountain, down Sychnant pass, up towards Tal-y-fan, around up Drum and over The Carneddau, and all the way down home, So it includes tarmac on bits. None of this transporting the bicycle by car!! A 120mm lightweight HT is just the job. FOR ME! Just right for Marin and Penmachno down the road too, anything bigger is overkill imo. I go to Coed Y Brenin and it’s very artificial compared to natural mountain riding and I feel I need a bigger bike cos the trails are construcred for that, but that’s not for me I think. Unless I get a windfall for a bigger bike! but I’ll need a car before that to transport the bike there! It’s kind of defeatist if you have little money. So Until my super skills outweigh what I can do on my 120mm Hardtail, that’s it for me. The next bike I want is a tourer/Cx type bike. Saying that, I would really like a go on Antur Stiniog but feel I am both under biked and underskilled so N+1 applies!. need a bigger bouncy bike for the collection! also, come to think of it, some of the best times I’ve had on a bike were cycling around London canal paths or Epping Forest on a 92 Tange prestige Bike with Manitou SX-r’s. So I guess the answer is – F*** knows. Really like my road bike atm…
