Bob Parsons had won Nevada City three times in a row, and in this shot from 1966 he is about to win it again. The race that year featured an epic battle between Parsons, from Pasadena, and Berkeley's Dave Brink, the dominant rider in Northern California. I shot three rolls of film at the race but most has been lost. Notice Dan Butler on Parsons' wheel. Not a bad photo for a high school kid!
