Needs a longer documentary, wot?

It's a bit like Nicole Cooke - wins everything going and the country still
doesn't know who she is. Bet they will come 2012, if she's as god then as
she is now.

I believe that it was Morley where there are the Beryl Burton Memorial
Gardens. (According to one of my work colleagues).

Leeds is a City not a County :-)

Beryl would have won even more if the women's road race had been held
at a decent distance at the Worlds. She would have ridden the entire
field off her wheel year after year after year. In those days women
were deemed to be too delicate to race over a long distance. Pah!
