Multiple national hill-climb champ and promoter
Lancashire legend Peter Graham, who lifted his first RTTC National Hill-climb Championship in 1958 and went on to win nine individual and team medals between then and 1965, died last week, six days short of his 88th birthday.
Most of his open wins were on courses familiar to North West cyclists – Nick o’ Pendle, the Rake, Peaslows Hill and Winnats Pass – but he would travel when necessary and won the first of his three national titles in the Chippenham and District event at Bathford, with another in the classic Catford CC event on Yorks Hill.
