Riders from the Westminster Dragoons looked very smart in their scarlet tunics, with cross-belts and swords, silver helmets and purple plumes. The brass bands were well apart so their tunes did not clash to any degree. Prizes for the cycle riders were difficult to judge due to very numerous entries and all being excellent; also public encroachment prevented all the cycles being properly seen. There were many novel ideas such as the gondola shown on the right of this picture.
