In Northern California's Marin County, cycling enthusiasts modified pre-WWII bicycles to ride down Mount Tamalpais' slopes, developing their bikes through rigorous testing and risking their lives. From humble beginnings, scavenging from dumpsters and junkyards, a multi-billion dollar industry, mass recreation, and an Olympic event emerged. These early bikes, affectionately known as Klunkerz, were the foundation of it all.
