I remember a beautiful summer day in ' 67 we were on a club ride in Marin Co., climbing up the back side of Mt Tamalpais . Have you ever been on one of those perfect rides , good companions , perfect gears , tires pumped up just right , it was one of those days . About half way up the mountain there are a series of switch backs , I was half way through one when my front tire punctured and went flat before I could react and I did a slow speed crash . I was wearing my brand new pale blue and white FORD- FRANCE jersey , I wasn't hurt and the jersey was only dirty and not torn , the hardest part was the troop of Boy Scouts along the side of the road who watched the event and began yelling DO IT AGAIN !
Yeah like I could .
