    What changed? You had a strong emphasis on riding a hardtail for a while

    I did. Until I rode @Jerneyman's full suspension Kona. The reasons I thought I wanted a hardtail, do not go away when riding a full squish around here. So, the advantages and comfort gained when riding a full suspension are worth it to open up other opportunities for me.

    Basically, I shouldn't have ridden his FS....it showed me what I was missing.

    meh, I wouldn't say that haha! that bike is a pos...I don't see anything I will be riding in the near future that that bike would be more advantageous then the next bike I buy. I can see myself having a nice new hardtail in the next 5-10years to add to my garage, but the one I currently own just about isn't worth riding lol

    yep, I could do that. I also plan to probably take it with me every time I ride if someone wants to tag along and come get exposed to the sport they are free to ride it.

    don't have to be from Alabama to come in here! we made this thread because our local Alabama group thread complained about all of the bike chat we kept having so we brought it to here.

    def good ideas! I don't think the money I'd make selling it is worth it, so I would keep it for all sorts of various reasons.
