Olympic Gold for Eddy Clancy
What a day Monday was for the Holme Valley Wheelers. It all started around 10. 30 am. Look North
wanted to film members of the club watching the team pursuit. Mark Wilcox’s was the chosen venue. At lunch time I did a live interview on radio Leeds. Then Jonathan Trollope and myself faced a Calendar Film Crew. Our congratulations were sent to Eddy on his wonderful ride.
