Velo Press will publish early this fall a new book for photographs of cycle racing from the early 1900’s that you have not seen before. Goggles & Dust: Images from Cycling’s Glory Days, has 101 photographs from the turn of the century of bicycle racing in France.
We’ve seen the suffering photos before; these cover all aspects of the race from the start to the finish, crashes and repairs to victories. The photographs bring back those great days in ways you’ve never seen before.
The greatest kick I got was seeing what has not changed in 100 years of racing the Tour de France. Cars still follow the riders, and based on the 2014 tour; riding conditions still suck, spectators still run alongside races as they struggle up hill.
At the same time, the photographs show you bicycle racing has come a long way. No longer do riders carry spare tires; water bottles are plastic and on the seat and down tubes and bikes are more than a single speed.
If you enjoy old cycling or new racing, you’ll love this book.

It’s a big day for Eric, the day of the bike race. His knapsack packed, Eric rides his bicycle to his friend Emily’s for a picnic near the finish.
Pedaling from his house, Eric is slowed as he aids wayward bike racers, using helpful items from his backpack. The faster he rides to meet Emily, the more delays he encounters, until he tears off in a burst of speed. The cheers of a crowd surprise Eric, but where is Emily?
Eric’s Big Day is a colorful adventure on wheels, full of fun and authentic cycling flavor. Children 4-8 will love this lighthearted tale of a boy who helps others and finds himself a winner.
