Most of you that ride mountain bikes may recognize the person next to me. Yep, that’s Gary Fisher. I’ve known Gary to be a mountain biker, but I learned that he used to be a road racer and a cyclocross racer before his mountain biking days. We were able to catch the docu-movie “Klunkerz” at the Bicycle Film Festival, it was interesting to learn that mountain bikes were born from single speed cruisers that were bastardized to go off road.
We had a good time at the Film Festival, unfortunately we were only able to catch one film. Billy Savage made an interesting comment, he said that it was nice to see how old bikes are being resurrected in the form of Fixies and are used as a method of transportation. Maybe a documentary is in the works??
