Here's another shot of Hi-Torque intern, Spencer Rathkamp, taken last year. Spence is a jumper
in addition to being a serious cross-country racer. What's more, he's now 18 years and 4 days
old, if anybody is keeping track. This was shot by Mike Wirth on the first day that Mike started
working for Mountain Bike Action. John Ker loaned Mike one of his cameras for the afternoon,
and Mike promptly took a bunch of cool shots of Spencer, who had come by the office for a visit.
Spencer was one of MBA's youngest test riders (and only 16) when this was shot on April 4th of
2011, while we were reviewing the Manitou Circus fork, mounted on a Haro Steel Reserve bike.
