Marin Museum of Bicycling
Sat 14 Dec my friends and I were trying to go hiking at near Point Reyes but roads were closed so we came back and saw the Museum in Fairfax and stopped we enjoyed a personal tour. Mike our guide concluded by mentioning the photos around and told us to look up Camera Corner on You Tube for the video about Wendy. The museum as a selection of road bikes owned by the early mountain Bikers who also competed on road as well. We really enjoyed the museum it made a disappointing day turn out well.

Camera Corner: Wende Cragg documentary
If you enjoyed the
video, you must watch this:
It is a documentary about Wende Cragg (the Hagen Daas girl who also says “if the guys are going to ride it, so am I”) who documented the birth of the mountain bike scene in the late 70’s-early 80’s. Only an hour long, you’ll drool at all the bikes and hear great stories about the woman who not only documented the revolution, but participated in it. You’ll want to watch it over and over again. Produced by The Radavist - they also have some sick vintage ATB’s highlighted on their web page. (No affiliation, I just dig their vintage bikes and their biking ethos.)
Happy Solstice!

Oooh. It's nearly 1am and I just work up from a 6 hour "nap". Jet lag sucks. Now I have something to watch!

Dang it. I googled the web but didn’t see a post on Camera Corner. I should have googled Wende Cragg. Sorry to have duplicated.

What a great documentary!
I want to thank ramones71 for bringing this video to my attention, as well as to thank the creators of the video and the mountain bike. I watched this with my 1997 Breezer Jet Stream, and we both loved my it.
This documentary nicely compliments the 2006 documentary Klunkerz, revealing the artist behind so many of the iconic images seen in Klunkerz and else. Ms. Craig is a truly amazing person who witnessed and recorded an amazing movement. Four stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐
