A Pre-War Hounslow Club Run
I thought this pic to be relevant to this thread as it shows pre 1950's bikes as they were actually used.
Not much is known about the photo, but it's been suggested that the figure sixth from the left is Albert Derbyshire who was the first post war BBAR Champion.
Derbyshire won that Championship in Calleva colours (well he would have done if everyone had not still been restricted to black!), but this is clearly not a Calleva group since there are women present.
It's striking that everyone looks young and happy.
