Nostalg-cycl-ia

It’s nostalgia time. I have just added some scanned copies of my early days of cycle campaigning (see Resources page), after encountering one or two old faces at the conference in Oxford last Saturday.
And now I find quickrelease.tv going down a vintage bike poster path. Great fun browsing the Bodleian Library’s online image gallery linked there, of posters, cards, adverts, magazines etc. That’s physically based in Oxford, of course. Small world.
Don’t forget that Malvern has the first museum of cycling memorabilia and ephemera at Riding High Gallery, along with great coffee.

Yes, I love those vintage bicycle posters! Nice tip, bdw. (For riding, I prefer a modern bike with many gears etc.)
