i road trails, city streets levee's and even did some bmx dirt courses.
i ended up snapping the forks in half due to all the wheelies i did i guess lol.
boy did that crash hurt 
but never the less it was a very comfy ride on all surfaces and conditions.
always kept it in 3rd gear seemed like the easiest softest pedaling gear.
very similar to this one:

I also had one like that around that time. Mine was blue, though. Lasted 2 months, died when I bunnyhopped about 3 feet. The frame broke because the shock compressed too far or something, I guess. I didn't even weigh 100LB. The seat was on the tire when the frame broke. Rather than me landing on the seat, I landed on the exceptionally knobbly tire which was still rolling. My anus has yet to recover.
