1925 track racing in Maryland

very cool photo showing some young and some older riders. Amongst all the Columbia and Iver Johnson bicycles, looking into the details you see a couple of bikes with brake levers and even one that has a pump mounted on the seattube(4th bike in, that some have wondered if it is young Bobby Phillips Sr.??).

Jerry Casale of Hill Cycle passed away this week
The Casale family owned Hill Cycle shop and was very important to the area cycling/racing community and Jerry Casale later went to run the Corestates and other incarnations of the "Philadelphia Bike Race," even having it upgraded to the U.S. Professional Cycling Championship.
He will be greatly missed.

Brooks Paris Brest Paris video
Above is a screenshot of 0:38 second in on the video below. This was taken the day before the start of the ride. We casually rode to Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines from Montmartre section Paris, I usually don't ride 1200kms+ wearing Lacoste. Also pictured are my tandem buddies, Pat and Cecily, who were on their honeymoon.
