He's around and may go out for a ride with us for the heck of it. He's been around a couple of houses from a good friend of mine. That will be a treat for me. He's still involve in coaching at the national level just like Meathead is.

LOL, seems like every time the velodrome comes up, so does that question.
No, I don't recognize those names.
I raced on Wednesdays once or twice a month as money would allow as I was going to college and making about $4.50 an hour. IIRC it was cheaper on week days

Probably did that for maybe a year and a half until I quit school and the bike shop and got a job as a millwright making $15.29 an hour in 1981 (thought I was rich, but wasn't).
