EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back to the roaring 1920s in St Agnes, Cornwall. The image captures a thrilling motorcycle scramble event that surely left spectators on the edge of their seats. In this particular scene, we see a daring motorbike and side-car maneuvering through an exhilarating course, possibly set against the picturesque backdrop of Blue Hills. The atmosphere is electric as both locals and visitors gather along the lane to witness this adrenaline-fueled spectacle. Excitement fills the air as people eagerly cheer on their favorite riders, their faces reflecting a mix of awe and anticipation. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates a moment frozen in time when motorcycles were not only means of transportation but also symbols of freedom and adventure. While the identity of the photographer remains unknown, we owe them our gratitude for capturing such an iconic moment in Cornish history. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring spirit of public events that bring communities together even decades later. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from yesteryears at Royal Cornwall Museum, it's impossible not to be transported back in time—to feel the wind rushing through our hair and hear engines revving with excitement once more.
