Ja, Sharrow is a thing, the name of the area of Sheffield where the club met. There's a grand picture of them meeting at the Pomona, a public house, for a group ride. That pic is displayed in a new pub called the Sheaf Island, in the same area. The Pomona no longer exists.

For heaven's sake, they got nearly if not actually to the top of the world in 1924, in tweed. I bet it was Yorkshire tweed at that.

That's closer to the bottom. I orient the world based on where I am - Washington DC, so that's far from the top.
