I remember the day Jack got his first motorcycle, a 200cc Triumph Cub.  He brought it over to show me, then we took our motorcycles for a ride down Highway 100 to Edina.  I don't know why we went to Edina but that's where he wanted to go.

Another memory is of a ride in the Buick he had.  He knew of a road going to Hopkins that had three rises and between each was a dip.  He had the Buick airborne all three times, very memorable.

A great guy.

Hey Leland, old friend, that 200cc Triumph Cub motorcycle was actually mine.  I let Jack borrow it for that day cause he loaned me his Buick!  It was shortly after that he went out and bought a new 250cc Honda Scrambler! We had many great rides together until I transferred from the 'U' of Minn. to Mankato State.  "Good Times" eh!!!
