What I feared

I have a Canyon MTB. Direct to consumer pricing makes them easily the best specced bikes at every price point. Only issues I've ever heard of someone having with a Canyon were with the newest Aeroad, and Canyon has since figured out solutions to those issues.

I’m kicking off my nth attempt at cycling to keep fit/healthy. We’ll see if I stick to it this time…
20 km at a very soft pace; hilly area; mostly paved, with approx 10% gravel or sandy terrain.
2 hours was my time…in my defense it was midday with 30 deg C and 92% relative humidity.

Speaking of Canyon, Valteri Bottas (F1 pilot) rides one. This looks like a casual ride but he races.

@mclaincausey The sweat marks on the handlebar are a bit of a give away! I guess "casual anything" is not part of an F1 drivers DNA.

@Denimhead-0 I see you solved the question of the shortest distance between two points is: a stop at the pub

Without creating a spoiler, what an enthralling race for the men’s Olympic MTB X-Country event today.

@Nocturama ah, thanks for the reminder. One of the events that I wanted to watch

Glad I changed my post to not say what happened @Tago-Mago

The women's race yesterday was also really good.

@mclaincausey valtteri is great and a total ripper on the bike. i’ve gotten to ride with him and tiff a lot through work and they are both great people. got to kick it at his place in lahti when i first visited a couple years ago. honestly sometimes i think he enjoys cycling more than driving haha.
