In July I bought a 1989 Cinder cone languishing on craigslist. My daughters had joined a mountain biking club, and I had no way to ride with them on trails. Since our closest ski resort is an hour away, i decided that a rigid mountain bike could probably tackle single track here, as well as double for cyclocross duty. For $80, I brought this home.
