Bike racing fan of the 80's was not only about the racing, the innovation around access to watch saw a revolution.
This era of the 80's saw the beginnings of Satellite TV, suddenly access to these races for generality across continents was possible. We were in a world where we could now follow riders, racers across a season, at the time also free.
That is, if you had a satellite dish.
Eurosport, and those early German channels were a great way into the world of Grand Prix, Superbike, Club racing. Following a British rider as said through a season was of course a new luxury.
Up's and downs of a year in racing to view in real time was to me a new exciting innovation in access.
Scotland's Niall Mackenzie timing wise was among those in this new media of satellite tv. Print media readership was still strong, social media was not a thing as now where riders can manage their own content to a degree. With that in mind.
Took it upon myself to file up what was in storage at my once parents house and garage. The T-Shirts I kept going and do pick up occasionally even still now. Old racing T's now a collectable it appears..
Road Racer magazine and RPM issues I have just filed up Mackenzie although do have some other back issues. Birthday cards were designed by Kevin Sheppard, T's Mostly by Mick Fisher. .An assortment of memorabilia from mugs to phone cards.
Reasons for, worked as a photojournalist and researcher, archival. A case of news desk national and, which I still do, 17th Century archives. So kinda what I did and do.
Mackenzie files really are a source file, looking at 80's 90's which was a golden age really racing wise. A personnel project to see in regards of a rider of that time, coverage via publications, where print gives a profile of and the dynamics of that.
Snapped with my high-performance Kodak Instamatic along the northern bank of the Colorado River and from a pullout on whatever road preceded the construction of this portion of Interstate 70.
It took me many hours to do it, but I finally found this exact spot, or its highly altered modern version, on Google Earth Street View. There I happened across an exact match of the requisite landforms sitting in just the right relation to one another.
I was, it turns out, adjacent to what is now the Hanging Lake Tunnel. I want to give my field-course profs a lot of credit for having us stop here: it was the teaching moment that was that summer’s most resounding refutation of their own reductionist souls. For this was science of geology at its most operatic, full of dramatic effects and epic scenery.
Regrettably, I have not revisited the canyon since this part of the interstate was put in. But I’ve recently discovered that even a virtual drive down it on Google Earth reveals much of the astounding civil engineering that went into squeezing the roadway through even the most seemingly inaccessible nooks and crannies of that narrow defile. The soaring cliffs are one wonder of nature; the ribbon of concrete below them is another. For, as I keep reiterating, our busy little species and all of its works are as much a part of the natural order as the mountains themselves.
In a post on FM 170, the Rio-Grande-skirting two-laner in Big Bend Ranch State Park, I noted that there were certain stretches of it, festooned with recent rockfalls, that must be driven through as an act of faith, on days when one is feeling nice and lucky. If you take a look at its accompanying photo, you’ll see why I say that.
I-70 in Glenwood Canyon is one of those places, too, and even more so. According to the first of my sources cited below, “about $11 million has been spent trying to protect this highway, which has been one of the most rockfall-prone sections of the entire interstate highway system.”
But geologists do feel lucky to be here, because this is undoubtedly one of the most awe-inspiring exposures of the Great Unconformity anywhere.
To explain what this famous feature is, it’s best to first point out what makes up the great cliff that dominates the background beyond the narrows. The darker bottom half, which lacks stratification, is an assemblage of both igneous and metamorphic rocks dating to about 1.7 Ga. This makes them Paleoproterozoic in age. But the more orderly set of lighter-toned layers above this mass is an impressive sequence of Paleozoic-era sedimentary units.
The Cambrian-period Sawatch Sandstone lies at the bottom of the stack. Above it, in order of ascent and decreasing age, are the Cambrian Dotsero Formation, the Ordovician Manitou Formation, the Devonian Chaffee Group, and the Mississippian (Lower Carboniferous) Leadville Limestone.
But the contact between the Sawatch and the Paleoproterozoic rock beneath it represents a significant gap in the geologic history of the Earth. And that is the essence of an unconformity. It’s a place where there’s a break in the sequence of the rock record that was caused either by a long phase of no deposition or by quite a bit of subsequent erosion.
Much closer to my home, in northern Illinois’ Buffalo Rock State Park, there’s an unconformity where Pennsylvanian (Upper Carboniferous) beds lie directly atop Ordovician ones, with a truly imposing gap between them of about 200 Ma. But here in Glenwood Canyon, the missing portion is a staggering six times that—1,200 Ma, or 1.2 Ga. And the Great Unconformity is, using more geo-jargon, a great nonconformity as well. That means the break in the rock record separates underlying crystalline (igneous or metamorphic) rocks from sedimentary strata above.
Curiously, the same gap is found exposed by the Colorado River far downstream, in Arizona’s Grand Canyon. It was there that explorer John Wesley Powell coined the term “Great Unconformity.” And it’s also visible in many other places, including Wisconsin’s Devil’s Lake State Park. Can you think of a reason why, in various places on the planet the same immense gap exists? You can be sure that this problem has powerfully exercised the intellects of many geologists. Could have it had anything to do, for instance, with the “Snowball Earth” conditions that existed for part of that interval?
I’m sure there’s much to be said about each of the rock units visible in this image. But I suffice it to single out the Leadville Limestone, at the very top of the layer cake. Normally bluish in color, there is a place about 37 straight-line mi / 60 km due south of here where this carbonate rock has suffered significant contact metamorphism. This transformation was caused by the intrusion of a nearby body of magma. As a result, the Leadville has been cooked into the lustrous, pure-white to golden-veined Yule Marble.
The Yule’s tight-grained texture and appearance is of premium quality. This fact has not been lost on the greatest marble experts of them all, Italian quarriers from the Carrara Marble district of Tuscany’s Apuan Alps. Despite the Yule’s remote location, they have undertaken the considerable challenge of extracting it from a giant chamber within Yule Mountain. Amazingly, much of this sought-after rock type is shipped to their own country’s ornamental-stone market, where it competes successfully with the Carrara itself.

There's a pullout about a half mile below the summit of Signal Mountain and a trail leads to a viewing area which gives a somewhat less obstructed view of the Tetons. This shot was taken from that viewing area and looks to the south in the direction of Jackson.

Such images are included but the vast majority of images, 7600 and counting, commingled amongst the few gallery-worthy images, are snapshots, bad shots and missed shots (the bad shots containing some element of the composition that strikes my fancy despite its flaws thus saving it from the Recycle Bin and the missed shots being those photos where the exposure and/or DoF were not completely appropriate). There is trip documentation and there are pure experiments (including multiple treatments of the same scene such as different angles, different post processing, different times of day, sunrise/sunset progressions, zoom progressions, etc.).

I stopped regularly at pullouts to take pictures. I'm towing a 1979 Triple E Surfside fibreglass eggshell trailer behind a 2008 Jeep Liberty with standard transmission. I'm well off the road, but I'm not parked too close to the steep edge. I also make sure I'm standing on stable ground. (Richard McGuire Photo)
Formula 1 CEO Chase Carey has gone on record stating team personal being infected by COVID-19 will not cancel races. With the 2020 F1 season finally due to start in Austria on 5 July, it seems the sport is desperate to avoid an Australia repeat that saw the race weekend cancelled after a McLaren team member tested positive for Coronavirus.
Speaking on the Formula 1’s website Carey said, “An individual having been found with a positive infection will not lead to a cancellation of a race,” he continued saying “We encourage teams to have procedures in place so if an individual has to be put in quarantine, we have the ability to quarantine them at a hotel and to replace that individual.”
The 66-year was quick to point out team reserve drivers are on hand providing a driver was to suffer from Coronavirus too; “But we will have a procedure in place that finding infection will not lead to a cancellation. If a driver has an infection, reserve drivers available.”
Carey also stressed he felt conditions around the countries they have chosen to race at is safe and takes the necessary precautions to go racing with minimal risk. “We wouldn’t be going forward if we were not highly confident we have necessary procedures and expertise and capabilities to provide a safe environment and manage whatever issues arrive.”

We nixed the pullouts and went with hacked rubbermaid slimjim cans due to convenience. The hinged door was for quicker access, less wear and tear if we made the big door fronts/drawers hack, and the walls of the shallow depth drawers took up too much room for the base of decent sized cans.
This was taken on a pullout off the side of RM 1431 east of Lago Vista. I believe that the sign in the picture is the back of the Lago Vista city limites sign.

For many years there has been a pullout and a sign indicating the location of Frying Pan Spring but no way to see the whole feature which is a short distance from the road through a very healthy and thick lodgepole pine forest. Finally when the road was rehabilitated some years ago, the pullout was slightly enlarged and a first rate boardwalk back through the woods to the site of this complex (though not especially beautiful) geothermal feature was built. It is still one of the least-visited interesting sites in Yellowstone.
It's name derives from the constant bubbling of some of the feature's pools, (visually, but not auditorially) reminiscent of a sizzling pan. The pH of this feature is a remarkable 1 - about as acidic as it gets - so don't stick a finger in it. Fine place to hide a body, though.
Ethiopian troops are withdrawing from Somalia. The pullout represents a major failure in US imperialist policy in the Horn of Africa.
There was a highway pullout to look at this tree. A 'flag pine' - apparently the inspiration for the eagles on the Albanian flag came from these trees.... I couldn't see it though.
Shelf for printer, long since departed. The slated front rolls up and goes behind, to give acces to the on/off on the CPU case. Used flexable plastic down each side, screwed to the slats. works great.
Looking south at Montara Beach from a Highway 1 pullout. Montara, CA - ½ hour south of San Francisco. The marine terrace is primarily unconsolidated sediment that appears to consist to a large part of coarse sand from Montara Mountain (behind me). Just out of sight to the lower left is a wonderful exposure of alluvial deposits that were deposited in a stream bed that cuts down through the terrace sediment. It will be interesting what this beach will look like a year, 10 years, 20 years and 50 years from now as sea level rises and the waves slowly eat away at the bluff.
From one of the first pullouts along the road at the north end of Jackson Lake. This view looks, pretty much, from south to north across the lake. It's breathtaking when you first see this as you emerge from the tree lined road.
The weather kept changing, raining on and off and clouds moving all over the place. With every new glance it looked different and exciting.

Rescue team pullout the dead bodies of army official from the mass grave and counting one official of rescue team during the digging. 71 army officials were killing triggered by the BDR (Bangladesh Rifles who guard the boarder). BDR soldier burned the face the entire army official after triggering. Deaths are the results of BDR mutiny at BDR headquarter. Dead bodies were dumped in several holes and could not trace out by the rescue team as a result the rescue official listing the dead bodies and try to trace the name of the army official. There were 36 dead bodies pulled from one of the holes.
Public restrooms at the Finger Mountain pullout on the Dalton Highway are closed for the winter season. Because the restrooms sit on high on a cold, windy ridge prone to freezing fog, they accumulate rime ice -- a coating of ice that builds up as supercooled water droplets freeze to objects, often on the windward side. The shrubs and granite tors in the background also bear a coating of rime ice. Learn more about planning a Dalton Highway adventure (the restrooms will be opened again in summer) at: www.blm.gov/visit/dalton-highway BLM photo by Tyra Olstad.

Resistance In Latin America ' . While US led imperialism continues with its aggressive moves, resistance has also gained momentum in the recent past Theupsurge of anti-imperialist resistance in Latin America has resulted in massive electoral victories of the anti-imperialist forces in all the majorcountries of the continent. Countries like Venezuela, Uruguay, Bolivia, Argentina and Brazil, which were ruled by puppet regimes of the USand were used as laboratories for the neoliberal policies of imperialist globalization till not so long ago, have seen Leftists triumph in the polls.

Cassiar Highway, BC. July 2013. Almost every pullout along the Cassier Highway offers a beautiful view. The lonely highway in westerrn British Columbia is one of the few land routes to Alaska. Services are few and far between, but there is a photo op at every pullout. The challenge is to take a bad picture.
There are several pullouts in the park that people just drive right by. In a hurry to get up to the mountain lodge I guess.
Carcass next to a pullout on the Middle Fork road. Looks gross and smelled worse. It was the size of a large goat or a small donkey. I'm guessing it's in the llama family based on the large teeth on the lower jaw.
