Race at Homebush in 1910 - Pics

[cludence]

Here is a pic I found of a race between Redfern and Eastern Suburbs cycling Clubs from around 1910. It was the final of the Interclub Shield. (-This is what is written on the back of it.)

This race was on Parramatta Road. Horse and Jockey Hotel is in the background. A hundred years on and we now have peak hour traffic in the same spot.

I'd love to be able to go back for a day. Wyvernh, can you build me a time machine please.

I presume its the final of the Dunlop Interclub championship. As best I can work out it is probably 23 August 1913 and a full report is here.

Incidentally Redfern won.

Wow that was quick Johnj. I will have to post some more pics and see what you come up with.

Umm no sorry I think you need more than a brazing torch for one of those. Daleks possibly I can do

The only suggestion I can think of is an airline ticket to the South Island of New Zealand?

Great photos tho' thanks for sharing !
