    素晴らしいビデオをありがとう。
    当時の日本のMTBに興味を持ったティーンエイジャーはミヤタのカタログでこのレースのレポートに熱狂して、みんなリッジランナーを購入しました。
    ロックショックスRS-1、オンザーポーキューパインタイヤ、オークリーのサングラスに皆憧れました。
    私もその1人でした。

    I was able to ride the course shortly after the race. That was many moons ago.

    No suspensions, no hydraulic disc brakes and all depended on wheels. The tires acted as suspension along with the rims as the part of the brake. It was totally the riders' skills. What a tremendous riders they were!

      You are correct, you hit a rock garden on one of those old bikes, you would just pray, land wrong on front wheel, u are going down.

    Damn, fascinating insight to the times! Sketchy!!!! You had to have balls of steel to ride those death traps at speed! Something to remember again when on my carbon HT 29" this AM!

      That's a bit of a stretch. It wasn't any more dangerous then than it is now.

    It would be very interesting to drop a modern-day 29er back then and have someone ride it and watch how bad everyone would get smoked
