Throwback Thursday ~ 1981 Bike Race from MIT to Wellesley College

More college days photo slides (even though the color is deteriorating)!  It's a good thing Vincent is digitizing these old pictures.  This group of photos features a bike race from MIT to Wellesley College (from Cambridge to Wellesley, Massachusetts.  The men in these photos are all from Vincent's house at MIT (New House III), and the women are mostly my friends and I.  I love the short shorts on the men in these photos - very vintage now!

For some reason we are all up in the Green Building on the MIT campus,
peering out the window... nice view of Boston and the Charles River!

On the Wellesley College campus, waiting for the bikers to arrive

The green T-shirts were the house shirts for MIT's New House III,
although they read "NTS" for "New Three Stooges"

The end of the bike race

Time for a picnic after the race

Relaxing before returning to MIT.
