Celebrating Bradford’s Cycling Heritage at Darley Street Market, bradford

Did you know that The Bradford Bicycling Club was founded in 1874? Or that in 1895 a four year old was the youngest cycling club member, breaking records with a 33 mile cycle? Or that the East Bradford Cycling Club, set up in 1899, has been home to Olympic and national championship winning cyclists? We'll have a screening of a film made with Summat Creative on the history of bicycle making at Pennine Cycles, featuring Graham Saunders. There will be a display of bikes from Graham's collection on the day, as well as images from our Photo Archive to explore. There will also be hands-on family craft activities, as well as a chance to meet organisations including the Capital of Cycling, local cycling clubs and the Beryl Bikes team.
