#AnR%C3%A1s

I love it when my job and my passion come together. In today's archive work, two bits of #IrishCycling history.
The Tour of the North from 1959 or 1960, going through maybe Downpatrick? And An Rás from 1960 (the notes aren't clear).
You can see both films here:

Image of cyclists in the Irish race An Rás. The image may be from 1960. The film is in Irish so the English subtitle reads "that'd it be very hard to beat Shay O'Hanlon from Dublin"

Archive image from 1960. It's in colour and shows a group of cyclists going uphill in a small town in Northern Ireland.
