I love everything about this image. The glassware, the "leafy green" sweater, the fact that they left the model's hair naturalistic enough to not suggest an aluminum helmet... Everything. From the Central Radio Club in Prague, Czechoslovakia to W7BDU in Portland, Oregon.

I have no idea what the young woman is holding in this picture. A very oddly-shaped picnic basket or carry-all? Some component of the motorcycle (which might technically be a moped anyway)? Anyone know? (Well, I got my answer. Scroll over to read.) From the Central Radio Club in Prague to Radio W7BDU in Portland, Oregon. (Shown slightly larger than original size.)
