A thought struck me whilst reading through some of the posts on here.
There are obvious differences between road bikes and MTB - are there as many differences in riders?
Are there any riders who do a bit of both?
My neighbour, like me has recently gotten on the saddle and we're both unfit and keen to get fitter. Each of us goes out alone to ride and we were talking last night whilst at the allotment about going out together.
However, he has an out and out road bike, whereas mine is an MTB, which will have road/hybrid tyres on shortly.
I don't ever recall seeing a group of riders (other than at charitable events and such) where there is a mix of road and mountain bikes - and I guess this is for obvious reasons.
Should they mix?
