"Cyclist Simpson Shows "Tour" Form During Easter Meeting"
British professional cyclist Tommy Simpson is pictured at the Herne Hill cycling track in London, England, where he won the 5,000 metres pursuit race against the Dutchman J. De Haan in 6 minutes 43.6 seconds, during an Easter track meeting.
Simpson, who now lives in France, captured the imagination of the French during his courageous riding in last year's Tour De France. He has been invited to lead the British team in this year's Tour, but he has not yet accepted.
