Following on from the 'starting golf' thread a while back got my bike out today considering it's sunny and cleaned it up a bit. Think I might take it up this summer.
Anyone on here do it?

I've had a bmx but that didn't last long as I got bored of having only one gear to go everywhere. At least a mountain bike you can use off road quite easily

Bet that cost you alot though. Take it you had hydraulic disc brakes as opposed to mechanical ones though?
