Legends
Before Mountain Biking was about Keystone or Winter Park, or even Cap’n Jack’s, it was a group of friends exploring public lands to find a great ride and a campsite. You can learn about the early days of mountain biking in the Mountain Bike Hall of Fame in Crested Butte, or you can stop by to visit with Tim Watkins. Something of a medicine man of biking, Tim also writes stories and creates the beadwork that protects many mountain bikes from bad luck and poor maintenance. His stories appear here by permission. Tim will be helping new generations of mountain bikers find their own way when the Monument Ride Center opens May 1st.
