TOM AND ARTHUR

Tom Young and Arthur Wright

Tom Young and Arthur Wright rode for miles to together. On two boneshakers as in the photo below or as above on a Dursley Pederson and a penny and for miles on their modern tandem. They were members of the Peterborough VCC and a lot of the other clubs as well They went round the Peterborough schools taking their vintage cycles and giving the young children a look at part of our history.

Very nice photo of the two of them with their boneshakers

Both of them did much to help the vintage cycle world giving up all of there spare time to and going to all events that they could. They were first there and often the last to leave.
