That's rather interesting. I grew up on the North Shore and rode my YZ125 on many of the trails that eventually became mainstream mtb. We're talking early to mid 80s. I eventually felt out of place riding up the switchbacks to the ski runs on Grouse and in turn any of the trails in between, which is what pushed me into mountain bikes to begin with. Didn't matter how slow or respectful I was to others on the road/trails, I was increasingly getting yelled at and fists shaken at me. I really haven't looked back.
