I was the same, used to ride XC and built up an awesome 100mm travel Turner Flux.
The the little one arrived, and didnt bike much.
Tried to get back into it recently and took the XC bike to Laggan Wolftrax, and hated it, got bounced around all over the place and was going to sell the bike.
Then did a demo day at laggan a few weeks later, rode a yeti SB6 enduro bike, never smiled so much (not common for me), and realised I needed more bounce on my bike.
Now the proud owner of my own Yeti SB6 and have well and truly got the bug again!!!
