riders in Glass B that could be gotten
together. Berlo and Cutter, the two
Boston riders, brought Bliss down at the
start like whirlwind. Bliss clung to
the rear wheel of the tandem and seemed
to be anchored there. Brandt and
Eddie McDuffee picked Bliss up and the
first tandem fell out without the slight.
eat hitch. The pacing on this lap was
steady, but the pace was furious one
and many thought it would be too warm
for Bliss, but that plucky little man
held right on and swung down on the
pole and froze to the third tandem, still
riding steadily and without waver.
