Default I'm a Mt. Bike Newbie again

Hey all, i've been a lurker and figured why not just register???
I weighed 285 lbs. in 9th grade and was down to 215 in 12th and was racing XC and superslim considering my body type. Well........that was 10 years ago. With school and work I gained it all back and now i'm back in the same boat! ughhhhhhh. I have to admit that it is easier starting out this time than the first. Muscle Memory?? I dunno, anyways..... Just wanted to say hello to everyone and I look forward to getting in decent enough shape to go out on some group rides and not die!

Welcome. A good place to start is the fully loop on Thursdays, it’s a fun ride with a lot of support from a great group.
