EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the remarkable moment when Mr Cecil Edge, riding his powerful 90 bhp Napier, achieved a staggering speed of seventy-one and a half miles per hour. The event took place on the picturesque Filey Sands in Yorkshire on the 13th of June, 1905. As spectators eagerly gathered along the beach to witness this daring attempt on the Yorkshire mile record, they were met with an unexpected challenge - pools of water obstructing the course. Undeterred by this obstacle, ploughs were swiftly deployed to dig trenches and drain away the water before commencing the races. The photograph showcases these very trenches that had been dug into the sandy terrain. It serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and determination in overcoming adversity for their passion for motor sport. The scene is reminiscent of an Edwardian era filled with excitement and anticipation. Crowds gather around horses and motor cars alike, all eager to witness history being made. This image encapsulates not only record-breaking achievements but also highlights how transport technology was rapidly evolving during this period. This stunning print from Memory Lane Prints allows us to step back in time and marvel at Mr Cecil Edge's extraordinary feat while appreciating the efforts undertaken by those involved in organizing such events.
