Quickrelease.tv: Cycling promotional film from 1955

[Tim Dunne]

Hi folks

Just spotted a 1950's cycling promo on Carlton Reids' site - 'A Cushy
Spin', currently lead item at www.quickrelease.tv...

It's a 15 minute gem - note the reference to bonking out, and the
current railway would do well to be that welcoming to cyclists. Some lovely
old bikes and the voiceover is a treat.

I have no connection to the site, but as the ad used to say - I saw this
and thought of you.

Tim

This sounds like the film we saw at our CTC clubroom last week.

I think it's included on the cyclehero.com DVD which was being given away.
