EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1930s in County Wicklow, Ireland. Three young men can be seen engaged in an exhilarating game of Cycle polo, a sport that was invented right here by retired cyclist Richard J. Mecredy in 1891. Similar to traditional polo, this unique variation replaces horses with bicycles, adding a thrilling twist to the game. As we observe these three fellows skillfully maneuvering their bikes across the field, it is evident that they possess both agility and determination. The sepia tones of the photograph beautifully capture the essence of this bygone era. The vintage bicycles used by these players serve as a reminder of simpler times when cycling was not just a mode of transport but also a source of entertainment and camaraderie. As we delve into history through this image, it becomes clear that games like Cycle polo provided an escape from daily routines and allowed individuals to indulge in friendly competition while enjoying the great outdoors. This print stands as a testament to human ingenuity and our constant desire for innovation even within established sports. It serves as a delightful reminder that sometimes unconventional ideas can lead to extraordinary experiences.
