Last week on Wayback Wednesday we had a collection of images from the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta. This week we cranked it up a notch with 10 additional photos along with a gallery from the Atlanta Games courtesy of John FX Flynn.

Some of the highlights this week include the Oarsome Foursome, Matthew Pinsent and Steve Redgrave, and the Olympic torch relay.

If you have any rowing photos from "back in the day" that we can feature for Wayback Wednesday please send them our way!
