I can't decide what kind of ride I want to do on what bike. Should I go on a trail ride on my Jamis Komodo, or a more intense road climbing/trail ride on my Surly Cross Check.

I'm leaving after I put on my shorts, shoes and fill up my camelback, whichever has the most votes is what I'm riding.

well, how about a combo?

throw some cross tires on the cross check and hit the dirt!

(sorry- had to do that just to be difficult)

I meant a ride with road climbing, AND trail riding.

There is this brutal (for me anyway) trail around here that follows Riverside drive. Its all on the road, and there is a TON of climbing in it. to get there, I can go through Belle Isle, which is trails, or, I can take Riverside to Forest Hill ave to Pony Pasture, which is loads of trails.

Anyway, I had a pretty good ride on the Komodo, but I need to work on its drivetrain :( I hit this new trail I'd never been on, and it was hard. lots of climbing and switchbacks. My body wasn't ready :eek:
