Tom Simpson at Herne Hill in this months Pro Cycling

Some previously unpublished photos of Tom Simpson racing at Herne Hill in this month's Pro Cycling magazine. Pretty cool to see him racing on the same track as us. There was a bit more of a crowd in those days, though! He's in his Peugeot jersey, of course.

Yeh and the best thing is the taping on his bars is different in different photos which I think will lead to some very interesting and animated internet debate.
