Like others have written, It is all about riding style. I was recently at a conference in Breckenridge. One morning I was walking a trail when two older fellows in full mountain bikey attire came flying down the trail. The first bike was a Yeti, and I couldn't make out the second. They didn't miss a stick or a rock. Their line was through everything. About 20 minutes later, still on the same trail a woman came by on an old Schwinn mixte with a big basket on the front. She was dressed like she was going to work in town, and rode the trail like she did it every day. Bob
