Anyone know a good source for old school black and white cycling shots?
Is one in particular I am trying to track down, if anyone recognises it. Probably from the 1950s/60s is of 4 guys riding together towards the camera all smoking tabs, fella in the middle is no-hands lighting his smoke using his pal's ciggie. Saw it in a bar in Switzerland, would love to get my hands on it or any like it.
That either rings a bell or is the most vague thread opener on STW.....

Look at [url= http://photos.lequipe.fr/detailPhoto.php?SESSIONID=c5a3138fc2f8e3937c64c9f6d2944919&ref=vp_tdf07_14&SPORT=Cyclisme&tri=V&page=1&random=50a882bb945992f4216fd82ebea2d3b4 ]L'Equipe[/url]. Loads and loads. I'm 99% sure they have the one you're thinking of.
Todays leading 9 riders, looking casual with over 13 mins on the peleton.
Hum. Sure but wrong. Some lovely ones, anyhow. ๐
Le Tour hit by another drugs scandal
Yeh couldn't see it on the Equipe site, thanks though, some great ones on there.
Think not 1950s/60s though, could even be from the 30s. Either way proper hardcore.
Can you still buy the handlebar bottle-holders? I used to have one when I were a lad, but my brother sold that bike.
