“Beautiful” Bob Williams
A community needs its leader and Bob is the NSC Velodrome’s. Styled as the Track Director, Bob was there when the first plans were laid and has since kept the dream going by educating new racers, announcing and promoting the races, taking care of the maintenance of the velodrome, and anything else that the velodrome needs to keep going.
Although Bob does so much for the velodrome community, he’s a little bit of an enigma. Everyone I know has their favorite stories and some sound more than a little outrageous, but my favorite has to be a description of his diet by one of the local shop owners that raced with him in the ‘70s : Diet Pepsi and popcorn. If not racing season, popcorn to be replaced by Doritos, Cool Ranch preferred.
