@CR- I’m sorry my brother bullied kids at Radnor -from the stories he told me he was also beating up some of the teachers,lighting bathrooms on fire and so on…Anything for attention….In his later years, much older and wiser he was the exact opposite of his juvenile alter ego, and wouldn’t hurt a fly…the bike,the parrot, his litte Citroen 2cv…all for the attention he loved so much…we all can change.

I met this remarkable fellow near the Stanford University campus in 1983, when my eyes were drawn to a bike overloaded with bright nylon bags. I asked the tall fellow in bright nylon clothes, “How much does that bike weigh?” and he responded, “a couple hundred pounds” … “How long you been riding?” …. “4 weeks” … “Where’d you start?” … “Philadelphia” … “Amazing!” … “So guess how I ride it.” I looked at the bike long and hard: A TV was mounted where the seat should be; two mirrors hung on long brackets, facing front; the bars were padded in a peculiar way — and the toe clips were mounted backwards! “No” I said, “Can’t be.” So he showed me clippings from his numerous ocean-to-ocean and Canada-to-Mexico charity rides, and then jumped on the bike and pedaled around. I’m dumbfounded to this day. RIP, Mr. Wooten

I ran into Wrong Way while swimming at a swim meet (high school) between events in Phoenix sometime in 1982-84. (It was BCP vs I think Apollo for those of you in Phoenix.) He stopped and talked to a group of us. He gave us advice on girls. I won’t repeat it here, but everything he said was good advice–I wish I’d taken it!. He seemed like a gentle, honest decent man.

I met Wrong Way back in the 80′s at Arizona State University. He stayed with us in the SAE fraternity house for nearly two weeks. We rode together, did nunchucks, were on the news, were cited by the poice (for haveing nunchucks on campus – I considered them an art form, rather than a wepon) and partied together. He …read poetry, philosphised and told us about his son and family. He was a very interesting guy, to say the least. I am sorry to hear that he as passed.

I was looking for a fellow named Nathan Van Wooten from Bryn Mawr
I believe he was “wrongway’s” brother. I knew him from a dental practice I worked in around 1979-1980+.

Very nice to hear stories from some of the people my brother knew, and met along his travels. He did more in 47 years than most people do in a lifetime.
