EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and nostalgic print captures the essence of cycling trips in 1898. The Register of Cycle Trips, with its colourful litho booklet cover, takes us back to a time when bicycles were not just a means of transportation but also a symbol of freedom and adventure. The image showcases an American farm setting, where a group of women cyclists are enjoying their ride through the countryside. Clad in long skirts and hats, these sportswomen challenge societal norms by embracing this new form of recreation. Their determination is evident as they confidently pedal their bikes along the dusty road. The advertisement for The Journal New York adds another layer to this scene. It reminds us that cycling was not only seen as a leisure activity but also as an opportunity for businesses to promote themselves. W. R. Hearst's publication recognized the growing popularity of cycling among both men and women and seized the chance to reach out to this expanding market. As we admire this snapshot from history, we can't help but feel inspired by these pioneering women who defied conventions and embraced their love for cycling. This image serves as a reminder that sportsmanship knows no gender boundaries and that even in simpler times, people found joy in exploring new horizons on two wheels.
