What bike did you ride today?

-
After spending the last couple of months of 2022 rehabbing a torn rotator cuff and most of January getting back to normal after a nasty case of the "Vid" I finally got back on the bike. Took my '41 Tall C for a 10 mile urban assault.... And it was glorious! So good to be back!

Decided to give my knees a break and ride a geared bike today. Rode my vintage 89-90 Klein Pinnacle mtn bike, with recently installed klunker bars. Snow from yesterday surprisingly almost all gone at the trail

If you notice all the trees, rocks, everything is covered with moss around this trail, densely forested and doesn’t get much sunlight in this area even in summer.
