Long before the mountain bike entered our global consciousness, the cycling enthusiasts of Northern California's de Marin County, rode modified pré-seconde guerre mondiale bicycles down the slopes of Mount Tamalpais. They developed their vélos through rigorous field testing, often risking life and limb to do so. Some of these cyclists were Category 1 road racers looking for a new way to train during the off-season. Others were simply fun-loving hippies looking for a new way to commune with nature. Their early vélos were balayé from dumpsters and junkyards. It was from these humble beginnings that a multi-billion de dollars de l'industrie, a form of recreation for the masses, and an Olympic event, were born. Thèse lourd steeds were affectionately known as Klunkerz.
