EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a thrilling moment during the 1969 Milk Race - Stage 12, as four determined cyclists navigate their way across a stream at Westerdale. The riders are identified as Ueli Sutter from Switzerland, Martyn Roach representing England, Noel Teggart proudly donning Ireland's colors, and Rudolf Jancovic hailing from Czechoslovakia. The image perfectly encapsulates the essence of this prestigious road cycling event that took place in Scarborough (North Yorkshire) and concluded in South Shields (South Tyneside). With its rugged terrain and challenging conditions, the race demanded both physical strength and mental fortitude from these athletes. Martyn Roach, seen here wearing number 16 on his jersey, was not only an English cyclist but also held the title of British National 50 mile time trial Champion. His determination is evident as he fearlessly tackles this obstacle amidst fierce competition. Preserved by Colorsport Images photographer Stewart Fraser, this historic snapshot transports us back to a time when cycling races were raw displays of athleticism rather than commercial spectacles. It serves as a reminder of the passion and dedication exhibited by these athletes who pushed themselves to their limits for glory. Whether you're a fan of vintage sports photography or simply appreciate the beauty of human endurance captured through artful lenses, this print is sure to captivate your imagination with its timeless depiction of courage on wheels.
