Tom Beckett has a boat load of pictures from 90s and 2000s!

Sounds so wierd to say 2000s like it was a long time ago.....
 
The next Mid-Ohio for me I was on a 1979 YZ 250 and was in second place in class when, I got stuck in wheel deep mud ( it rained all night ) my wheel couldn't turn from the mud, I had to get pulled out, went a few feet and with the rear wheel still full of mud fell over in disgust.
Fortunately or unfortunately in my case my friend Photo Guru George Szwagulak ( RIP ) was there to catch the...lack of action.
George took photos of most of you BITD.

How about the guy with the 1979 World Series of Rock shirt that was at Cleveland Municipal Stadium. The line up for that show was Aerosmith, Ted Nugent, Journey, Thin Lizzy, AC/DC and the Scorpions. Man, it was going on around here back in the late 70's!
 
Another old vs new that hasn't changed.. Just processed this roll from Malvern's Saturday night mud race. 35mm B&W Tri-x film.

I am a big fan of B&W photographs.
In fact I have a shot of a rock in Joshua Tree Natl Park at a somewhat different angle than the one Ansel Adams took.
I had no idea that it was the same rock Ansel took a picture of we just stopped at this picnic area and walked around.
 
That's awesome, I'm a huge fan of it as well. Most younger riders are confused why I can't quickly send them copies to their Instagrams haha. "...film? Huh.. You're shooting video?"
