Thanks for the story, will have to check with those I know who were MTBing back then and see if any of this rings a bell or not. Personally can't recall hearing about any Babbs riding MTBs, but there were a good group of guys riding back then and some of them had "questionable" at best hydration/fueling practices.
Guessing that on the east coast you'd have been riding the likes of Haggats, Springvale, Orange Trail, Hilaby, all sadly trails basically forgotten now in lieu of the new school thought of speed and jumps.
If you're ever looking to come back to visit, the MTB scene here is quite big now, so just give a heads up and you'll be shown the best, old and new school trails we have _(I try my best to keep a few of the old school trails alive)_.
