This is a series of short articles written by Roger St. Pierre for Cycling Plus magazine. Each article looks back at aspects of cycling culture and history. A lot of it predates my experience with cycling, which I found to be interesting. I'm hoping that others will too.
The first of this series is Bashing the Clock, which is a look at Britain's time trial races back in the day.
