Mountain biking, as a sport and recreational endeavor, isn't very old. Depending on how you define the moment mountain biking was born, mountain biking is around 40 years old. In those 40 years, we’ve gone from cobbled together rigid bikes to bikes able climb to and descend on nearly every terrain available. We’ve gone from a group of hippies to one of the fastest growing sports for high school kids. There is a lot to be proud of. But we have brought some baggage with us that, much like disco and sex in a van with an airbrushed desert scene, is better left behind. What could that be? It’s simple: illegal trail building and trail riding.
