Even with a carbon fibre frame, this magnificent mountain bike (Ibis?) must be an unpleasant experience to ride and climb… it's even written on the chainstays.

Well seen!

A very classical bike and the rider wears the spare tires like the early racers of tour de France.
Perfectly timed.

Ive seen one guy actually make the climb to the bikes saddle... I photographed the incident from the BACK so as not to turn him into a celebritiy...Inspiring every kid who saw the photograph on the local facebook page to try to replicate the stunt....

the bike [a Breezer]  was designed by Joe Breeze one of the founders of the mountain biking hall of fame.

I never got to meet Joe Breeze but I met Keith Bontrager and Gary Fisher. here, you can still find one or two Breezers (as well as some neon-colored Kleins, original Manitous HT, Yeti FROs, etc.)
