Hello All, hope you are well.
This year for Black History Month we have the pleasure of introducing
to you cycling Legend Maurice Burton.
Maurice made cycling History in 1974 by becoming Britains first ever
black senior champion.
After winning three British Titles and racing at the Commonwealth
Games he moved to Belgium where he raced professionally on the six day
circuit before moving back to Lambeth to take over De Ver Cycles in
Streatham in 1987.
Maurice will be talking about his experiences of professional cycling
in the 1970s and 80s and will be interviewed by Lincoln Romain from
Brixton cycles before opening questions up to the floor.
