Personally, I don&#8217;t think any one person can claim it.\u00a0\u00a0I feel the concept\u00a0of\u00a0\u00a0Mountain Biking was an idea that evolved as riders in different regions pushed their bike love into new arena&#8217;s.. So where am I going with this? <strong>TRACKLOCROSS. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I stumbled across this website today <a href=\"http:\/\/tracklocross.blogspot.com\/\">http:\/\/tracklocross.blogspot.com\/<\/a>\u00a0It&#8217;s a website devoted to the\u00a0discipline of riding trackbikes on grass-tracks.. Whilst the term &#8216;tracklocross&#8217; is new, the idea is not unique.. Across the other side of the globe in Hobart, we have been talking for months about doing a trackbike grass-track event, blissfully unaware of events in NYC and assuming\u00a0our idea was fairly original. I&#8217;m pretty stoked to discover that there are likeminded bike nuts coming up with what are practically &#8216;stupid&#8217; ideas independantly of one another on opposite sides of the planet. Now..\u00a0 can anyone point me in the direction of an FX-MX blog?<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-402\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bottlesandchains.com\/?attachment_id=402\" title=\"tracklocross.jpg\"><\/a><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-402\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bottlesandchains.com\/?attachment_id=402\" title=\"tracklocross.jpg\"><\/a><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-402\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bottlesandchains.com\/?attachment_id=402\" title=\"tracklocross.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bottlesandchains.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/tracklocross.jpg\" alt=\"tracklocross.jpg\" height=\"188\" \/><\/p>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Idea&#8217;s have a tendency to pop up at the same time in very different geographical locations.
