My 1st 'ATB' was a Raleigh Marauder. Had fun on it, but was total crap and wouldn't want another !! :x
1st 'proper' MTB was a 1989 Diamond Back Ascent, sold loads at the shop I worked at, at the time, would have one of those again.......So where are they ????

My first was a Peugeot Lynx in 88 i think, dont miss it one bit. My first proper MTB was a Ridgeback 602 in 89, white with blue spatter, was about 3 sizes too big for me, did my first few races on it though but wouldnt want either of them now, both of them were horrible to ride :shock:

Don't have my first - '91 Fire Mountain - gave it away for the right reasons at the time, and wish I hadn't. :cry:

Thought about getting/building up a replica but other builds have made me realise that I want my bike back - a replica wouldn't be the same.

So if you see a blue 18" Fire Mountain, STX RC groupset, with black smooth x-lite ski barends and a selection of MintSauce/X-Lite stickers in the South Bedfordshire area, let me know.

My first proper MTB was an '89 Lava Dome, yellow splatter. Loved it and would love another.

The first MTB i rode was a Funk, in neon pink. From the moment I saw it I was hooked. I got a Raleigh Maverick but it didn't measure up, and after 3 broken frames I went shopping for something better.

Next bike I tried was a Pace RC100 at Walton St. Cycles in Oxford, who sold me my Kona. I still lusted after the RC100 for years, then finally got an RC200 in 1994. It's still my main bike
