Fred Scherer & Walter Wiley (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

Tom Wigley said:
Various sources seem to suggest that this is the start of a transcontinental bicycle race between New York and San Francisco. These two cyclists represented the Caribou Club. An article from the New York Times is here (dated May 4 1914): query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?_r=1&res=9807E... And this article records the departure of a second team: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?res=9F03EFD8103CE6...

amphalon, thank you for the identifying information. We will update the source data and reload the description.
