I thought you knuckleheads would enjoy seeing this book from 1992. I sure spent a lot of time reading and re-reading it when I was a young-un. It was both useful and hilarious, and really captured MTB culture. Mr. Nealy, if you're out there somewhere, thanks for the lessons and the laughs!

I loved this. One of the things that got me hooked on MTB back in ‘94…
I’m curious how much has changed in the riding advice given now vs 35 years ago. The bikes are a lot different, and the terrain is a lot more challenging.
I have this on a shelf somewhere. This was a whole genre of book in the 70s and 80s.
And I have his kayak book also
The good old day before E BIKES
just to be clear here, MTB was his secondary past time. The first was paddling. You think these MTB cartoons are hilarious? His white water guidebooks are timeless…. I encourage everyone to go read a short story he wrote called polio Creek.
It’s sadly out-of-print, and the illustrator has passed away IIRC. Wish I bought it when I saw it at the bookstore! Been thinking about those illustrations ever since.
No motor in sight
