1958 - B.L.R.C. Amateur RR - GB National Championships - Vintage Cycling

The last GB Championship road race organised by the British League of Racing Cyclists which was won by Bill Baty who provides the commentary on this video clip.
The race started from The Guildhall in High Wycombe which can be clearly identified in the early part of the video.
It must have been heartbreaking at the end to learn that not only the trophy but also the winner's prize had been stolen during the race!

What a gem! I rode with the Baty brothers in the late 1970's, they were in their 40's and I was 18/19.
