With vivacious spirit, fans encourage the Varsity Football team onto a victory against San Iuan. MM, Thank God it's Friday, said Casey Cox as the final S school bell rang. The park- ing lot filled with the excitement and confusion of weekend plans. Students anticipated the excitement brought on by the Friday football game. Dressing warmly, students congre- gated at the stadium. Shouts and cheers filled the air as the football team jogged on the field. Football games provide the perfect atmosphere to socialize, said Susie Fyre. As the banners waved and pom pons flew, students expressed their school spirit. The stadium emptied as fans began the search for the perfect party. They made plans in advance to save valuable hunting time. There were three choices: AJ the sure party, BJ the Reaching for success, Tiffany Aldrich arranges clothes at her place of work in Sunrise Mall. Weekends provide an opportun- ity for anyt ing from an exciting evening to a lazy day possible party,which usually fell through, and CJ the private party, which consisted of watching movies at a friend's house. Because almost every- one was present at Friday's games, party news spread rapidly. Friday nights have better parties and better looking girls! said James Maxey. After a long, late night many students spent their free Saturday morning sleeping in. Other more unlucky students spent their Saturday mornings and aftemoons working. lt's not easy working, while friends are out having fun, said Pat Sullivan, a dishwasher at Sizzler. The tedious hours paid off, as extra pocket money was useful. Typical Saturday nights were spent looking for things to do. I call up the men and we go out, said Ron Pieri. Pieri and friends discovered Red Light, a quiet spot on the bluffs, over-looking the red blinking lights of the city. Here, the group gathered to enjoy a wild or quiet Saturday night. Another popular spot was Penguin's Yogurt Place. The varied flavors and toppings tempted people to Penguins as a start or sumptuous end to an evening. It's a happening place! said Paul Philips.

The local competitive cycling rage, but also .the Q1 bodies, and 1t's legal. series at Scott Road, Beals Circut, healthful aspects of cycling In 1986 the United States saw a resurgence in cycling that had not been evident since the turn of the century. Before Greg LeMond's win in the Tour de France, many people looked at their bikes with contempt. It used to be that only the under- classmen, who did so out of necessity, were seen on bicycles. But after America became trans- fixed by LeMond's victory abroad, people could be seen riding bicycles all over the Sacramento area. In August, thousands lined the streets of Old Sacramento to watch racers whiz by in a criterium stage of the Coors Classic. Not only did people start to follow standings and races, but active participation, both competi- and the Twilights saw a marked increase in participation. I've seen a big jump in the number of riders in the past year, said J. Personious, organizer or the Beales Circut. With students that were less competitively inclined, recreational biking in the Sacramento area saw a great popularity increase as well. For the new recreational biker, Sacramento seemed an ideal spot with its many miles of bike trails around the American river and easy access to longer and more scenic rides in the foothills. During the summer, we went down to the bike trails every day, said Scott Crosby. ' Not only were the high speed adrenaline rush of a race or the enjoyment of a leisurely ride along contributed to the particpation explosion. I've got to cycle every day to stay in shape for a triathalon in January, said Scott Klacking. It wasn't just triathletes that were seen more frequently on their bikes in '86, the school commute and tOO and me, Gus seemed to be turning more more to two wheels. I'm young to have my license when nobody's around to take it sure beats walking, said Emmick Health and other factors aside, for the penny-pinching community of students, cycling made sound economic sense. The amount of maintenence is directly propor- tional to the usage the bike takes, unless, you take a couple of spills, said Andrew Jenkins. llmflflill Q , nmSJl.S'TlN . rl . 1 QI U1 UI Eli!
