Fitzwater Wray (original) (raw)

William Fitzwater Wray (1869 – 16 December 1938), who wrote under the pseudonym Kuklos, was a British journalist who was one of the most widely read cycling journalists of his era. He wrote in national newspapers in Britain and in cycling journals. Through his writing ran the conviction that "on every real bicycle there is the unseen pennant of progress, the standard of democracy, (and) the banner of freedom." He also gave magic lantern shows, predecessor of slide shows, which were in demand in the 1920s and 1930s and to which cyclists rode "prodigious distances."
