Yes we did use to ride to time trials with our racing wheels in sprint carriers. This was still common practice in the early to mid sixties, car ownership was relatively uncommon in the UK then, and with the price of tubs (sew-ups) being the best part of half a weeks wage you wanted them to last. Schoolboys in our club were still riding to the track or evening 10s in the eighties using sprint carriers.

Be lucky Mick B.
