 Along with Wende Cragg, Larry photographed much of mountain biking's earliest moments.
+Early on, Larry and Wende managed to unlock a gate crossing Repack, making the downhill easier to ride.
+<blockquote>
+It was on the Coast Trail, that we spotted the ring of keys. We grabbed them, not really thinking too much about what they might open. As it happened, the ring contained a master key that opened the Repack gate. Having the gate open gave riders the psychological advantage of not having to guesstimate its location or having to dismount, which took several seconds off everyone’s clocked time.
