Okay, guys, once again, who is this allegedly famous 50+er cyclist? My best guess is Terry Bradshaw. :innocent:

Addendum: Or Max Gail

Thanks; I missed that one, looking only at the apparently current photos.

Add Gene Hackman to the list.

He got hit by a car today, and fortunately is on the mend.

Oops. as qcpmsame pointed out, this article is two years old, to the day. Apparently some news sources picked up on it and ran it as fresh news. Well, I'm glad he has recovered.

Art,
I am a Gene Hackman fan, this shocked me since he got in an accident, discussed here, a few years ago. Your link is 2 years old, thought you might want to know. He is a WWII Marine and is one of my favorites, "Hoosiers" is one of my most watched movies.

Gene Hackman was born in 1930, joined the Marines when he was 16, after WWII, served 4 1/2 years. To young for WWII, got out before Korea, still a great man. I am also a fan of his.

Hey, at least I had the correct decade:roflmao2:I knew he is a Marine, I guessed at the time frame, and as usual I goofed. Thanks for the catch!!!

Thanks for serving Bill, from an Army vet.

Thanks to you, also. Regardless of the branch of service I am grateful to all that have served.
