Braving the traffic and all kinds of weather, Marshall's cyclists commuted to school each day. Instead of rushing to meet a bus, those with bikes could eat a leisurely breakfast or sleep late and still make it to school on time for first period. However, some mornings cyclists had to tolerate frigid temperatures, slippery roads and other discomforts and hazards. As a protective measure against morning businessmen and the multitude of school buses, some students installed rear view mirrors at odd angles, besides the standard safety equipment. Cyclists also found it necessary to invest in sturdy bike locks rather than leaving their precious bicycles unprotected. Biking was common grounds for seniors and underclassmen alike. The seniority stigma attached to other activities had no place among cyclists. There was a kind of comaradie between cyclists. Class was not the important thing. Gear ratios, brakes, tubing, and frame weight were upmost in most cyclist's minds. |oc Coyle Maribeth Craig Andrew Doorley Culh.ine — Key Club 2,3,4; NHS 3,4; It's Academic 2,3,4; Math Team 2,3,4; Reveille 3,4; Golden Doughnut Club, Co-Pres. 3, Alumnus 4, One Act Plays 3; Orchestra 1,2,3,4.
