The Story of The Pedaller
The Pedaller magazine is now in it's 25th year and the first slim 20-page A5 booklet appeared Mid-Summer 1983, created by the Brighton Section on behalf of the West Sussex DA. It was typed and copied by St. Giles Centre for the Physically Handicapped with hand-written adverts, all for the price of 20p. For the second edition, the services of The Brighton Print Centre were employed and then, many more changes occurred during it's lifetime until it reached it's present format.
The first editor was Ted Axford and then later, in the hands of Percy Copp, it grew steadily and permission was obtained to use F. Patterson sketches starting with the cover of No. 15, Spring 1987. The Pedaller had become the magazine of the West Sussex DA and represented the views and activities of all of the sections.
A few more changes of editor occurred before Alex Rothney took up the baton and established a magazine of interest and integrity. He produced The Pedaller for 10 years before eventually retiring from the post.
Then the future of the magazine became uncertain for a few months before I accepted the post and now, it is hoped it will continue for another twenty or so years. In order to promote local artists and Sussex, the cover now carries sketches of Sussex localities starting with some of my own on No. 80, Autumn 2003. Artwork from all members of the DA are very welcome as well as any articles in any form(see below for details). Increases in production and printing costs have resulted in the present price of 70p per copy but you now get a bumper 32-page quarterly magazine full of interesting articles and information for your money!
