Eric Heiden in Pinky's road race, Pescadero, California. 1984. That's a custom-built Ritchey road frame and toe clips in their final year....Look pedals were just around the corner. Giro helmets, also about to revolutionize racing, were three years away but Giro founder Jim Gentes was probably riding this race.
It's not Bob Roll in this picture. I was in the race this year. Bob was racing for Turin BC I believe. Heiden crashed in this event. He's probably bridging and suffering in this shot.

I believe that is Bob Roll far left. Pinkie's was a great road race...
