I think this was 1971 in eastern Washington State outside of College Place and Walla Walla.

You want throwback?
1977. Not bike related though.
My sweetie still looks the same. I don't.

July 4, 1983. I take the tag-off from our team's runner to begin the 20-mile bike leg in a team triathalon, while my canoeist member holds the bike up. Yes, I still have the Colnago and the jersey. Yes, we won. See the arms on that canoeist?

Here's an article about TOSRV circa 1966. Thats all the participants on the steps of the Capital building.
Shoot, thought it might be readable.
Highlights; 45 riders, 10 were girls, some riders all the way from Chicago.
Total cost of the tour including meals, equipment shuttle and sag wagon...$2.75
Next year, 1967 tour will not exceed $3.00

Firstly, I don't know what an OG is. Secondly, the guy on the far right, the ex-husband of my then girlfriend, was building bikes at the time. He and his girlfriend had nicer frames, my GF had something a little less nice, and I was fortunate that he had one more available. There was a thread somewhat recently, about the early days of mountain biking, and I posted that pic. Somebody here knew the name of the guy who won that race, but I can neither remember it, nor find the thread.

I realize that nearly every day is throwback Thursday around here but some of these vintage pictures are great.
