Carl Spencer was a Marine, avid cyclist, and long time supporter of RHS.
To honor the 200th anniversary of the Marine Corps in 1975, at age 56, Carl made the monumental decision to cycle cross-country from New York to San Diego. Carl's bicycle and memorabilia formed the first permanent exhibit in the RHS museum.
Today, we take the time to honor him while enjoying his favorite activity, cycling. Join us at RHSn this evening, to watch the Beverly Hills Cycling Classic and remember this pround American.
Have you been out trying to catch 'em all? Don't forget to check in at the Ridge Historical Pokestop!
