That is my given name, but I am called

to comply, telling her must wait until I
found one sufficiently promising to be
worthy of the name. So when discovered
that the colt now called after me was a

Pertinent Pointers For Racing Cyclists.

Railways ride with your front wheel
slightly outside the driving wheel of the
man in front. If he slows suddenly, this
will enable you to escape collision. If
you ride inside mans driving wheel, YOU
are pOWerless in case a man from behind
spurts in front, and if the man in front cuts
a corner very close you may be bored onto
the grass or collide with him." says r. J.
Mecredy, the veteran racing man. ''Never
look around. II is a most dangerous habit
and serves no good end. Either listen for
the rush of your opponents wheel, with
your head slightly bent, or look back under.
your arm. Never slacken once you turn in
to the finishing straight. When one eases
in ones squirt, especially at the end of
hard run race, it takes time to get going
again, and under such circumstances rush
from behind is almost irresistible When
hard pressed, remember that your oppo-
nent is probably quite as much done as you
are. 1t then becomes matter of pluck.
The man with the biggest heart will win.
When man is passing you, keep a careful
watch. Riders are very apt through care
lessness to cross too soon, and unless on
your guard you will find it difficult to avoid
collision.
when in second position approaching
the last corner, you should not allow the
leader to slow too much, or some one from
behind may come with rush and not only
take your position before you can jump into
your sprint, but draw others with him and
effectually pocket you. Don't back pedal
at corner. It will upset your steering, and
it is much easier to get round pedaling, es-
pecially if you work the right or outside leg
the hardest. If the corner is a really bad
one, it often pays by a sudden rush to start
the men in front, sprinting some 60 or 70
yards from it; then slow slightly, drop back
and as they swing wide sprint by on the in
side Nothing takes the pace off machine
and the go out of a rider so much as to
bungle corner. We have seen man who
carried out this dodge successfully get 20
yards lead before the men who had been
leading him an instant before could get 90
ing again to catch him.
