A CDV-sized tintype featuring a group of nine men, believed to be members of an early bicycle racing team. The men are posed with their bicycles, standing in a line in a formal studio setting. Dressed in matching uniforms, including bow ties and period-specific hats, the photograph reflects the growing popularity of competitive cycling in the late 19th century.
