Screw the car - the Bike is Awesome.
Okay since your forgot how to Bunny Hop with clipless pedals and your riding "Flats" you need to go check out
www.bikejames.com he is a MTB specific trainer and an advocate for "Flats" Remember "Clips" are for Tie's not Mountain Bikes.
I made the swtich back to flats about 1 1/2 ago and just sold most of my clipless stuff this week. My riding skills have excelled more in the last year. I can rail trails that I have struggled with for years. Trust me don't look back leave those cleapless pedals for the Roadieee's.
ps - buy your self a good pair of Teva or FiveTen sticky bottom shoe's and you wil be more connected to the bike then with clipless.
