one of the coolest pic Ive seen.... i hope someday they will make a movie similar to Lords of Dog Town. were they trace the roots of downhill. hehehe i saw a DVD here in our city which belongs to a fellow biker, in which the title was KAMIKAZE. featured old school freeriders. and there was this rider with one arm or leg yata yun. never had the chance to watch the whole video. I dont know where it is now. notice the water bottle in front of the headtube.hehehe how does he drink from it? does he do wheelies first then sip on the bottle? hehehe one word for this pic..... RESPECT. ;D

I just hope no one delete this thread because of "no helmet" policy.
BIG RESPECT TO THE PIONEERS!
Mountain bike evolved from cruizers and road bikes that we're modified - created by riders bored from typical road dueling bikes. Yes, mountain bikers are freeriders in the first place.

Cool shots ...how eerie it is to see bikers of the past. It has a feel of being older than the real 1970s and 1980s
may those who have passed on to heavenly trails guide and protect us as we ride ours..with the same passion a burning!

yes watch the DVD KLUNKERZ,
hippies invented mtbiking!
at first they used the Newspaper boy schwinn bike, with balloon tires,
these bike do not hold much in their downhill races (REPACK)
so the racers/frame builders (joe breeze, tom ritchey, gary fisher)
decided a new stronger frame, the birth of the first mountainbike, and the rest is history.

hi patrick, in consideration to the whole context (being old school portraits and used as presentation of DH history) of this thread, i believe that for obvious reason the "NO HELMET-NO POST" forum policy will have to be relaxed here a bit and i hope peeps will understand and not use this as an excuse later that......"why was my no helmet pics post deleted when in that thread it was not" c'mon guys let's be realistic naman ;D OmFGadzzzzz no helmetzzzzz plz remove those pictures!!! Please wear helmets you guys and dont post those no helmet pics here.

anybody here have seen the first ever ad of the Stumpjumper? I love the tagline . . . 'It's not just a new bike, it's a whole new sport' Btw, if you check out the trailer, you could hear . . . 'cars, cops, etc . . . these don't exist out in the trail. You were free. There were no rules because the authorities didn't know about us yet . . .' kinda feels like how it is here right now huh?
