Confession time !
That's me , " FOREVER YOUNG " !
1st photo is taken in Nam '70 , my grease gun and me
2nd one is taken in early '70 at my folks farm , as I'm leaving for staging company on my way to going overseas !
3rd one is myself home in front of my '64 Chevy Impala , I'm home from boot camp , is the only photo taken of me as a private , there are no PFC photos as I never wore my Marine uniform while at home , until I got WESPAC orders and than I started taking photos , incase I never came home later !

A little known fact !
I misspelled it , it's RAGBRAI and I do only one to three days a year or until I GET PASSED BY 5000 + bikechicks , as my ego can only take so much !
I got that TREK last year , as it's got an aluminium frame with all 105 components including bottom bracket . My other two roadbikes are steel frame , one is a Jamis with Tiagra components and the other is a Peugeot ( French made ) that I've upgraded alot with 105 stuff !
I like to bike some as I also own a hybred , tandem and other stuff !

Rumor had it , that she was also your DD !
You never share any of your beer with the rest of us , you just fill up you red wagon with PBRs and tell your daughter to pull you around , not sharing with the rest of us !
Now we  know !
