Sweet!  We were in the same era I guess.  I was racing as a junior with Mike
McCarthy and George Hincape back east.  I'm ex Cat3.  Started riding again 2
years ago.  Gonna get my Master40+ next year.  Tonight, I'm going to a club
race here in SoCal, dang it, I have to start as Cat5.  When the heck did they
start having a Cat5?!!  

Last camera I used on a bike was an Ansco Pix Panoramic.  Don't want the
weight.  Here's some bad scans:

I did use to carry my F2 and lenses around Manhattan when I was a photo
assistant.  Have messenger bag, will travel!

So when are you going to sell that Superwide?  That's what I want to carry on a
bike!
