i was in contact with mark fillebrown for a bit
mike i added you on myspace
when I lived with my dad in Kearny in 97 and part of 98 I used to pick mark up at the path station in Harrison and we would go to flemington or any other local race in the area. Cool guy wonder what he is up to knowadays.
I would add Jimmy Cliff the “J” in DJ’s bike shop. He was always there to help the riders and never cared how it would benefit him. We closed his shop and painted all the team helmets in his store. Sorted and stored all of the team jerseys and product in his living room, and always helped a rider in need. Jimmy moved to Florida years ago and has since passed on, but I know that he will live on through the gratitude from all of his team riders!
Bike N Gear had a little scene in Middlesex for a while.
