It was actually the West London BAR trophy she presented me with.
She's packs a lot of punch for such a small unit. Her bio Wonder Wheels is a great read with loads of record breaking anecdotes from cycling's golden* era.

I saw her speak about her end-to-end record a couple of months ago as part of a fundraising drive for her local church roof. An incredible woman, really amazing.

Look Mum No Hands are hosting the premier of this new documentary short about the legend that is Eileen Sheridan. Eileen will then take a few questions from the audience.
Hippy was presented by Eileen the West London BAR trophy (she now makes glass trophies used in distance cycling awards) and is by all accounts a lovely woman whose joy in cycling is infectious.
Hope you can make it. Unfortunately I'll be in a field somewhere...
