As a child, he was sure that the mountain in his backyard was the "highest mountain in the world." The magnificent presence of Mount Tamalpais—Marin's original tourist attraction—and its green slopes has shaped his life indelibly. He roamed not just the county, but much of California by bike, at a time when few people rode bicycles at all.</p> <p>Breeze was a road-racer on the weekend, but during the week he rode with a posse of free-spirits who sported no race numbers or uniforms. They roamed the yellow hills during long summers, astride clunky relics in search of fun and a little adventure away from the suburbs.</p> <p>If you told Breeze or one of those denim-and-flannel-clad bikies that someday mountain biking, or the "world's smallest sport," would be an Olympic sport, a high school team activity or the inspiration for national transit policies, they would have wondered what planet you came from. </p> <p>"</p> <p><a href="http://www.pacificsun.com/mobile/news/feature-get-on-your-bike-marin/article_6c4ee616-2335-11e4-aaf1-001a4bcf6878.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.pacificsun.com/mobile/news/feature-get-on-your-bike-marin/article_6c4ee616-2335-11e4-aaf1-001a4bcf6878.html</a> </p>
