Would you rather have quick comebacks but regret later what you said or be speechless but content later with the things you could have said but didn't?
You had me at being content.
I tend to regret it either way.

That is a really tough question for me AARR. I really would like both. A lot. My first cycling love is truly single track so I probably would go with that. But doing a calorie comparison the 30 miles of pavement probably burns minimum 500-600 more depending on pace. Still in the end I think I go with the 10 miles of single track all other factors equal.

I think I would prefer the 30 miles.




Would you rather prefer to bike with someone with comparable abilities or someone who can push you beyond?
