I took these when I first got into cycling and racing.
I think the 7 Eleven rider on a Murray is actually on a Serotta(?).
Anyone able to identify him?
How about the woman next to Connie Carpenter?
And who is this guy from Levi Raleigh?

The Levis Raleigh rider might be Roy Knickman.

"Back in the Day" as the kids say now. That's how I remember cycling. Pre-Doping days.....sweet leather helmets and downtube shifters *sigh*

The chick (next to Connie) with the long braid is Inga Benedict-Thompson. Front row bleached-blond looks like Marianne Berglund.

Bottom photo is Mark Whitehead (aka "meathead") and I think it is Hugh Walton in the Raleigh jersey.

I believe photo #1 is of Alex Stieda, first North American to wear the yellow jersey in the TDF.

Yes, the 1st Canadian.

I was placing AS ahead of GL; the way it occurred in the time line. Someday, our Northern Friends will win the overall, and I will be cheering for them all the way. :beer:

She rides a 58 road. Anything less than 57 track: They're fibbing.

7-11 rider Ron Kiefel i believe, the rider next to Connie definatly Inga Thompson. Though i could be mistaken, but after seeing them race it is hard to forget those two.
Wouldn't it be great if some of these riders were forum members and chimed in some time.

yeah the girl with braids is Inga Thompson..That's not Kiefel in 7 Eleven jersey - he had light hair - no? I have other pics in slides from that race - entire 7 Eleven team in classic pre race poses and in action. I need to get them put on disc or something.. Also have older slide pics from the 1981 USCF Nats at Bear Mountain NY in 1981 (?). One day I'll get them all on disc and perhaps post.

Yes, it's Inga and Connie. Marrianne was/is diminutive, and I don't believe that's her in the image. To die for, BTW.
