First Magazine Article Ever

[Repack Rider]

First article ever on the new sport.

The first time anyone noticed this new bicycling movement enough to write about it was in late 1977, for an article published in early 1978.

Not many copies of this magazine exist, so I have scanned it into a .pdf for public consumption.

Re:

Smashing, thanks - this article and reminds us how mountain biking does have the Americans to thank for its development early on.

Moreover, this article goes hand in hand with the 'movie' Klunkerz - that I'm still trying to buy on DVD to watch over the Xmas holidays (Klunkerz looks like the MTB equivalent of the good old Bruce Brown classics, Endless Summer [surfing] and On any Sunday [MotoCross])
