This photo was taken in February 1884. The cyclists are members of the newly-formed North Otago Cycling Club. (The club was formed via the amalgamation of the Oamaru Cycling Club and the 2nd version of the Oamaru Bicycle Club early in Feb, 1884. Albert Sargeant was heavily involved in the formation of the latter). Ref: North Otago Times, 1 March 1884, Page 2.
