EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Kent Gavin, we are transported back to the thrilling world of horse racing in June 1979. The image features two legendary jockeys, Steve Cauthen and Lester Piggott, sharing a tandem bicycle with infectious camaraderie. Both men were at the pinnacle of their careers during this era, known for their exceptional skills and fierce competitiveness on the racecourse. Cauthen had already made history as the youngest jockey ever to win the Triple Crown in America just a year prior, while Piggott was revered as one of Britain's most successful jockeys. The juxtaposition of these esteemed athletes casually enjoying a moment together off-track is both endearing and rare. It offers us a glimpse into their personal lives beyond the adrenaline-fueled world of horse racing. As they pedal side by side on that vintage tandem bike, it becomes evident that even champions need moments of lightheartedness amidst their intense pursuit of victory. Their smiles speak volumes about the bond shared between them - a mutual respect forged through countless hours spent competing against each other. This photograph not only captures an iconic moment in sports history but also reminds us that behind every great athlete lies an individual who cherishes simple joys and friendships outside their chosen field. It serves as a timeless reminder that even amidst high-stakes competition, human connection prevails above all else.
