EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back in time to the winter of 1969 when a group of determined cyclists completed the iconic London to Brighton Bike Ride. As they pedal their way through the chilly East Sussex weather, you can almost feel their excitement and exhaustion. The image captures a moment of triumph as these brave riders finally reach their destination - the vibrant town of Brighton. The old-fashioned bicycles they ride on add an extra touch of nostalgia; with high wheels and penny farthings dominating the scene, it's clear that this event was not for the faint-hearted. Despite facing challenging conditions, these dedicated athletes are dressed in traditional cycling attire – jerseys, shorts, and caps – showcasing both their commitment to the sport and their resilience against winter's chill. As they gather outside Fortes restaurant on Old Steine Street, spectators cheer them on while admiring this display of physical prowess. The atmosphere is electric with anticipation as everyone awaits news about who will be crowned champion in this thrilling race. This photograph from Memory Lane Prints serves as a reminder of how sports have always brought people together throughout history.
