PRO TOUR OF CENTRAL 1960-61

 As can been seen by the size of these races 54 starters in 1960 and 47 in '61

the Professional race scene was still in 

reasonably good health in the early sixties.

 The good health of the 'cash' scene was not to last,

the last of the cash clubs amalgamated with the amateur

clubs in the early nineties..

There is a brief explanation of this decline

in my other blog here

I really like this Tour Leader jersey,

worn by Colin McNaught, winner of the 

Tour in 1960.
