"Twelve Pictures About a Bike Race" on display at Intersection

Photographic Exhibition by Martin Helmut Reis graces the walls of the CBN

In 2003, the Road World Cycling Championships came to Hamilton. It was perhaps the largest race of its kind ever held in Canada. Martin's work takes an historic approach with 12 images created using vintage equipment to reflect the nostalgia of the history of bicycle racing which Hamilton now shares.
