Recently I've been out way more on the full suspension MTB... gotta get new cogs for the road, so it waits.
I used to only mtb and was "against" the road... first time I got on a road bike it felt so fast, it was an awesome feeling compared to riding a mtb on the road.
Try it and you'll see the difference... but don't pedal too hard, you might just wheelie yourself off the bike
And going the other direction - I almost bucked myself off my mtb after a long stint of road riding - those hydraulic disc brakes are much grabbier
