So I got in the trunk tonight to pull out some pictures for your enjoyment.I was not born when these were taken so I do not know where the race pictures were taken were taken.

Picture of my dad was in my grandparents by my uncle.

Enjoy,

Bill

Thank you all for your kind comments. Dad will be 80 years old October 27th. I will post some pics of him on his birthday. Went down this past weekend with my daughter and the bike. First time he sat on it he really got choked up. He just got a pace maker put in the first of the month so he did not want to ride it. I hope next spring he can take it for a spin.

It's in his blood, still at 80.
