Bicycle Things I Found While Cleaning Out The Home Office

And I ain't done yet....some pictures are fuzzy because I snapped em with the phone camera. The real camera is buried in the rubble...


A RUSA window sticker from Membership Czar Don Hamilton...


A tube of Udder Butter, made by the folks at Lantiseptic...


A card from Hotel Aerotel, near the start of PBP...I think Jimmy Williams gave it to me...


A "proof of passage" postcard from Byron, sent to me when he did an overnight Lake Loop....


A very nice card from our friends in France...


My patch from the one and only year I did the ride...


A blank postcard from Jan Heine at Bicycle Quarterly...


A book, still unread, I believe from JoeRay...


This picture, mounted on foam board, was in my mail when I returned from PBP, with the message: "We already know the story but we are waiting to hear your version." It freaked me out until my buddy Anthony owned up. Shot is from the German movie, "The Lives of Others."...


Portion of laminated route from Blackbeard, done before I knew the route by heart...


And here's a shot from the Blackbeard route. The tall sign has since been removed...


A shot of me and Cap'n Ende eating hamburgers near the finish of the inaugural Cascade 1200. I photoshopped in that background...


Rich and Dan eating ice cream at Mapleview on a very cold birthday century four or five years ago...

Happy New Years...

What do you mean "cleaning out"? You're not getting rid of that stuff are you? By stuff I mean priceless stuff.
