In this print from Hovis National Bike Week on June 13th, 1995, we are transported back to a time when local postmen showcased their cycling skills with an exhilarating obstacle course at the Environment Action Station in Middlesbrough, Cleveland. With bicycles perfectly balanced and determination etched on their faces, these dedicated postmen demonstrate how it's done as they navigate through a challenging course designed to test their agility and precision. The vibrant energy of the event is palpable as they effortlessly maneuver around obstacles, showcasing not only their physical prowess but also their commitment to delivering mail promptly. This snapshot captures a moment of outdoor leisure activities intertwined with the daily responsibilities of these hardworking postal workers. As they pedal through the course with grace and finesse, it serves as a reminder of the diverse roles that individuals play within our communities. The image evokes nostalgia for an era when cycling was not just a sport or means of transportation but also an integral part of everyday life. It reminds us of simpler times when posties were familiar figures in our neighborhoods, diligently ensuring that letters reached our doorsteps. Ian McIntyre's expertly captured photograph immortalizes this memorable occasion during Hovis National Bike Week while paying tribute to those who served in the Royal Mail.
