Is this bicycle too old to be of interest?

Maurice's palmares -

1921 - London-Bath-London in 11hrs 55mins 30secs
1922 - rode 337.5 miles in 24 hrs
1923 - Lands End to London in 17hrs 47 mins
1923 - Paris Roubaix.

A true champion in the pioneer period.

Killed whilst riding to his shop in 1935.

Photograph doesn't really do this rare machine justice.

It should be in a museum.

Thanks for the interest, I've listed another of Maurice's cycling achievements.

Hi, a better photo is what's needed, its always good to see some real historic usable bikes on the forum, the basics haven't changed for over a century, nothing's new. Terry
