EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to 1882, where we find the noted cyclist H.L. Cortis making his way onto his extraordinary 59-inch (1.5 m) Invincible Ordinary bicycle. The Ordinary, also known as a Penny Farthing, was a popular design during the late 19th century, characterized by its large front wheel and small rear wheel. Cortis, a renowned cyclist of the era, is shown in the midst of mounting his bicycle, with the assistance of his dedicated trainer. The trainer's hand is firmly placed on Cortis's back, providing support and balance as the cyclist positions himself over the saddle. The image captures a moment of human connection and teamwork in the context of an emerging sport and transportation revolution. The Ordinary bicycle, a symbol of progress and freedom during the Victorian era, allowed people to travel faster and farther than ever before. This photograph not only showcases the innovative technology of the time but also highlights the dedication and perseverance of the cyclists and their trainers who mastered this extraordinary mode of transport. As we admire this historical image, we are reminded of the rich history of cycling and the significant impact it has had on our world. From its inception as a novel mode of transportation to its current status as a popular sport and recreational activity, the story of the bicycle is one of ingenuity, determination, and the human spirit.
