Pinkbike Poll: Who Taught You How To Mountain Bike?

I had such a weird intro to the sport. Never really biked until I came to college and started hanging around a community bike shop in 2015- most of the dudes there were retrogrouchy and super into steel rigs from the 90s with moto bars and thumbies. My buddies and I built up those frames and rode them as hard and far as we could till our poor wrenching resulted in a mechanical. We would walk the bike back, learn some more and get better (at riding AND wrenching). Gained an incredible appreciation for 80s/90s frames and components- at 26 I find myself shooting the sh*t with old timers about deore deerhead and pretty lugs. Whenever I see folks post on here about their first 90s mtb and cantilever brakes and skinny bars and how shitty bikes were I feel some kinship, even though I wasn’t even alive yet hahaha
