EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the Springfield Bicycle Club's Bicycle Camp-Exhibition & Tournament held in Springfield, Massachusetts, USA, on September 18, 19, and 20, 1883. The image showcases an excited crowd gathered along railroad tracks, their eyes fixed on the action taking place in the foreground. Amidst the throng of onlookers, individuals on bicycles can be seen, their wheels spinning and tires crunching against the gravel. In the background, a bicycle track stretches out, its curves and turns inviting the participants to test their skills. The campground is dotted with tents, providing temporary shelter for the competitors and attendees. The picturesque scene is completed by the serene presence of a nearby river, reflecting the golden hues of autumn as the season began to change. The Springfield Bicycle Club's event was a significant moment in the history of cycling in the United States. At a time when bicycles were still a relatively new mode of transportation, these competitions brought together enthusiasts from across the country to celebrate their shared passion for cycling. The Bicycle Camp-Exhibition & Tournament offered a platform for racers to showcase their abilities, while also providing an opportunity for the public to learn about the latest advancements in bicycle technology and design. This photograph serves as a testament to the excitement and camaraderie that defined the early days of cycling culture in America.
