  1. Two super cyclist in the late 1970's were Chris Pringle & Bob Cooke. Cooke died in the early 80's
    after a battle with cancer. Doe's anyone know the exact circumstances? Doe's anyone know what
    happened to Pringle? Thanks!

  2. Cook died from an inoperable brain tumor. Don't know about Pringle.

    His name was Mark Pringle and he was a bad as mother fcker. A super climber, with the record on
    morgul bismark for awhile. Also came out of retirement in 1981 or so and got second at Nevada City,
    trianed by running stairs at Heck Ed stadium at the U of Washington. Also Just a great guy.

    I've heard nothing lately about Pringle. I remember at one time he was manufacturing custom bike
    racks--I bought one for my tandem. But that was over 20 years ago.

    I asked Calvin Trampleasure about Mark on the Berkeley ride this morning. He said, last he knew,
    Mark had retired from Boeing in Seattle as a welder, was racing motorcycles (and doing well), making
    hobby horses (with hair and stuff), and getting ready to move to one of the islands in Puget Sound.
    We were going kinda hard so my memory may not be perfect here, but I think this was as of 5 years
    ago or so.

    Others probably have more current info.
