  • wanted to share this with ya'll but didnt want to start a new thread.

    this is me many years ago in a race at crystal palace (tuesday nights as it was then). also in the picture is my friend david fry who was also in the VCL velo club de londres. the rider ahead of us is from the gemini cycle club. the circuit was a killer but much shorter than it was when races were originally held there (maybe 40's). i stumbled across this picture today. the frame is a benotto.
    hairnet helmet, wool jerseys, adidas merckx shoes ...................niiice :-)

    sorry if i missed something.

    Looking comfortable, very nice. Good to see they haven't changed the numbers in the last 30 years! Presumably what happened next is you and Fry bided your time until the rider in front was tired, launched an attack on the final lap and shook off the Gemini rider and took a VCL one-two?
