CALLING ALL CYCLISTS

Did you know? Ripley was once the most famous place on the planet for cycling .

The latest exhibition at the Ripley Museum is called RIPLEY - WORLD FAMOUS AS THE 'MECCA FOR ALL GOOD CYCLISTS'. It traces the origin of the so called Ripley Road which was, in fact part of the Portsmouth Road between Ditton and Ripley. The cycling craze from 1870 -1900 brought thousands of cyclists into Ripley and in particular to the Anchor Pub and the hospitality of the Dibble family. It features the memorials in Ripley church and the 'spin offs' of the craze such as the Anchor Visitor books, a Ripley board game featuring the Anchor. The Anchor are supporting the exhibition with a free draw for lunch for 2 in their restaurant.
