No way will I get a rigid, 29er, or SS (or any combination of that). Maybe I'm just a baby but I like my gears and suspension.

Amigo, welcome to the cult. What is the gearing? is it a cassette or freehub?

How's that hand. Let me know when you want to SS the beginners ride this weekend might work for ya.

LBmtb & Gurp13, i'm with you guys.

Gears and suspension is the only way to go

Why would anyone want to hike-a-bike a killer hill when you could climb it if you only had a granny gear and a 34 tooth gear in the back and totally be able to conquer it?
