Description
Colorized photo from July 3rd, 1915
Original Title: York auto races, start of Wash cars
Location: 14th and I Streets in Washington D. C.
These 8 cars are all from Washington DC, they will race in York PA with the rest, a total of 12 cars will be racing 2 days from now on July 5th. This group will make a 90 mile journey to the race track in order to compete. The cars are street worthy, and I suppose that poor cop on a bicycle will pedal the 90 mile distance with them.
The drive over is called a race, but its not competitive. It's not known if the bike got there in one piece or not.
