Ted has brought back some memories of years past when together we would ride our mountain bikes until we’d both fall over. The following photo was taken July 29, 1996 (I removed the date stamp with Photoshop) by Ted while I was “trying” to look cool. Ha ha!
I have a ton more photos from those days where we’re attempting to be mountain bike racers and all that jazz. Oh yes, I’ll post some, don’t worry. I even have photos from my first ever race where I bonked hard due to lack of training and energy. Maybe the Mammoth Lakes 10,000 foot peek was the problem? Or maybe it was getting my front wheel stuck in lose dirty on a tight corner which caused me to flip over the handle bars.
Those were the days… *sniff sniff*.

Do you remember the rides all day and then a quick trip to the one hour photo where we would process the film and then scan them into the website? What I wouldn’t do to live in those days again, before all the serious life stuff happened.
Ah yes, the all day rides followed up by the one-hour photo, ha ha! Life sure was much easier back then, working odd jobs, riding whenever and wherever we wanted. Responibilties… ugh.
You should start a new album and call it “when I was cool and didn’t do so much grown up stuff” or something like that. Include those pics. If I remember right there were some mighty cool pics in there.
Ha ha ha! I have piles and piles of pictures from back then… going to be a challenge going through them all. I like the idea about an album, yesh sir!
