Description

Author and historian Ben Schofield interviews veteran cyclists about their experiences on tracks and the road in Melbourne during the 1950s and 1960s. Many of these cyclists were world class and helped make Australia a major power in cycling. The book includes copies of newspaper clippings and other images, as well as photographs - many never before published images from the personal scrapbooks and collections of the interviewed riders.
