As I said ๐
Nobody else?
That one of Steve geall doing a inverted tabletop when riding for animal/giant back in the day. Inspired me to go build some jumps.
I remember I had that on the wall of my student digs Van Halen.

I met Harry Leary as a kid. Along with Bob Haro and a few others at a Kellogg's bmx show.
Can't decide between the two...

That one at the top, TAFKASTR, has to be that one.
It was in a XC race, FFS!
I don't actually have a favourite - so many iconic photos

As great photo's go, yes, definitely.
However, JMC and the boys in DIRT made me want to ride mtb
There was once a pic of John Tomac jumping a road bike over a hump or bridge in the road. I can't find it anymore though. Always loved that one.
@Drunkcyclist tend to have some interesting pics on Twitter.
Mike King Death Slide at the kamikazee 1993. Ok it wasn't the Kamikazee but the same mountain and probably a similar course.

All sorts of awesome here [url= http://www.malcolmfearon.com/-/galleries/bliss-images-mtb-archive ]You probably had to be of a certain age[/url]
I like this for two reasons, when it was first taken it was part of the whole "will Wiggins really win the Tour?" thing which was growing day by day but now it's more of a reminder of how committed Froome can be and how different that Tour (and the Vuelta previously) could have been.

First edition of "Road Bike Action" in the USA, IIRC.
If that's John T then that's the one!
Fantastic!
That's not Tomac, and that's also in the UK. Pretty sure that was a homage pic from the importer at the time. (Carrati?)
I think I remember a Tomac one as well, PP, but can't find it anywhere!
Found some tiny ones.

^the GT one for me
There was a pic of Dave Hemming on his way to junior downhill silver at the first ever offical worlds cornering at speed on his rigid Klein. Awesome stuff.

Right OK. It was Tomac I was thinking of. I think you're right about the Caratti thing.
PeterPoddy, I believe that was a rider with a surname like Zadrobolic...got a fair few wins for Gt then he failed a drugs taste and never really heard off again. I think that was 95...
There's a picture of Peaty pinning it through some woods in an early DH race on a Kona hardtail and I can't find it - another inspirational one for me....
My daughter racin at the Malverns
