The City of Worcester, MA through the Major Taylor Association is planning a statue to the local cycling hero.? You should know also that teaching about Major Taylor is part of the Worcester Public Schools official curriculum.? The links below lead you to the association's web site, information about the statue and to a new batch of Major Taylor cycling jerseys.? I own one of these, and though they are made of modern materials, they are very cool.? Enjoy.
