I am terribly annoyed.
The big steaming dog poo that is WordPress has this morning prevented me from embedding a multitude of the most amazing and fantastic videos of British cycling history from a website that was previously unknown to me. British Pathe.
I would have loved to have shown you the movie of the 1951 Tour de Britain but no, it won’t let me, I would also have liked to post about a 1956 Dunlop T.V advertisement but alas Worpress says no so unfortunately friends you will all have to go see for yourself by going here.
If you like your movies black and white and you are partial to a spot of nostalgia then it really is a must!
Thanks LS of B’ham cyclist for the linky.

I don’t think it’s WordPress’ fault. I couldn’t get it to embed either so I think Pathe prefer it that way.
