Overview
Originally dated to 1900, this film was later re-catalogued as 1896, making it one of pioneer producer RW Paul's earliest actuality films. The side of the road is lined with promenading onlookers, and the pace of the cyclists, many of them women, and pony-traps is gentle and leisurely, suggesting a Sunday outing.
