Lovely film. What struck me was that the participants have changed since then; 100% male and, for something that seems to be almost an audax (ride, time stamp, ride, lunch, self-sufficiency, no prizes) mostly much younger. But then I suppose although it looks like audaxy, it was for them a warm-up to the club racing season.
And some things have come back in different guise: cut-off trousers – Swrve jeans, musettes – courier bags.
