I have only been running on them since vacation. It is nothing personal against my bike, it is just that I can come home from work, throw my shoes on, grab the dog & be back home before the heat gets oppressive.

When I ride (I ride different trails than I run) I have to spend just as long in the car as I do on my bike, because the good trails are in the 'white flight' neighborhoods (the burbs), plus all that gas gets expensive.

I think in the long run my biking will benefit.

I'm in kind of the same boat, which is why I've been doing so much road riding. I can do that from the end of my driveway. Any lengthy trail ride requires at least 30 minutes of drive time each way.

I wish I could get into running.

me too. Last year I spent 200 hours in july and august building new trail, and this year almost none...it has just been too hot to spend the afternoon doing that for no $$$. Maybe september...

Yeah, my mtn. bike has seen more pavement than dirt this year.

I have found that biking improves my running, but running does not improve my biking.

You are still working on that thing? You should be ashamed of yourself.

Whats up with that. Yesterday I went on a killer road ride and today I knocked it out of the park on my run. Super strong and kept an excellent pace. I never feel stronger on my bike after a good week of running.

evidently eating good food, drinking good wine, and taking nice vacations are more important than building a bike. I've offered to go without food for a year just so he'll finish it and we can ride together.

Damn it's nice having real trails 500 yards from my door...

You can't rush perfection, man.

We're spoiled to have nice trail in a couple of locations within a 20 minute drive.

[partsbara]

running = the :devil:

you will pay for worshipping false gods

The trails here are worth the drive. i can't run comfortably ever since i broke my leg anyways.
