Yeah, I enjoyed that film.
This might be a difference in semantics, but I understood the bike he built for John Finley Scott (RIP!) to be a Woodsie (with flat bars). And the Woodsies weren't mountain bikes. Had they been mountain bikes, we wouldn't credit the Repack Riders with inventing the mountain bike, right? I can't find the link at the moment, but the NAHBS site made mention of the Woodsie Ritchey built for JFS as a precursor to the mountain bike (i.e. not a mountain bike). Potatoe, puh-ta-toe...I'd love blast down Mt. Tam on one whatever it was.
