Bicycle Posters Revised June 2012

Bicycle Posters & Prints was established in 1980 by Judy & Jerry Lambert, who have been cycling & collecting for more than forty five years. We strive to offer a wide variety of subjects and styles. One of the many subjects is the sport of Cycling in the Olympic Games. In celebration of the upcoming 2012 London Olympics, please visit the Olympic section to view our many Olympic posters. London is the first city to host the Modern Olympics three times - 1908, 1948, 2012. For Cycling fans, this Olympics will have additions of Team Sprint & Keirin to the Women's Program; while Omnium will be new for both Women and Men. Removed will be Men and Women's Individual Pursuit and Points Races. Jerry proudly served as a volunteer at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. Atlanta was one of Lance Armstrong's 3 Olympics, and is the most remembered because of the shock of his cancer diagnosis soon after the Games- Age 25.

The bicycle is so much more than a machine for competition. It has been called the noblest invention of mankind and the most civilized conveyance known to man. Our product selection attempts to reflect some of that meaning. The reason we continue to mention Lance Armstrong is that his history goes so far beyond his accomplishments in competition. Both the Tour de France Champion and the Lance Armstrong Foundation were born during Lance's 1996-97 battle with cancer. From that moment on he cycled for more than himself. He thrilled and inspired us all; and at the same time carried the Hope of cancer survivors, patients and health professionals on his shoulders. Every Tour de France victory was linked and magnified by the effect that it had on his community. Lance has tirelessly worked to improve Life for those touched by cancer. It has become a life long mission. Several comebacks prove that he still loves to ride. A final thought comes from a favorite book THE NOISELESS TENOR, THE BICYCLE IN LITERATURE - titled from a poem that for editor James E. Starrs suggests "the subdued whirring of the bicycle in contrast to the noisome clamor of other more modern forms of vehicular conveyance".

Our poster collection is large with most of them not on the website; therefore feel free to inquire about any specific poster interests. In addition to posters our site features cycling gifts, mugs, books, calendars, holiday cards , etc.
