His quarter-mile time (28 seconds) stood as the world record for 21 years and as the British amateur record for 'at least 39 years'.[7] His lifetime achievements were celebrated in 1948 when Cycling Weekly awarded him his own page in the Golden Book of Cycling, which is now held in 'The Pedal Club' archive.[7] Personal lifeJohnson was born at Aston Manor, Warwickshire[2][3] During the 1901 census Johnson lived at 22 Station Road, Erdington, Warwickshire where his occupation was listed as carpenter, his father, John T Johnson, was a bicycle maker.[2] CareerVic Johnson started cycle racing in 1902 when he joined the 'Rover Racing C.C. During the 1901 census Johnson lived at 22 Station Road, Erdington, Warwickshire where his occupation was listed as carpenter, his father, John T Johnson, was a bicycle maker.[2]'. 1908 was his break-through year when he won 60 races including the National Cyclists' Union (N.C.U.) British National quarter-mile title; the World's Amateur Sprint championship in Leipzig Germany; and the Olympic Games 660 yards sprint in London, completing a single lap of the track in 51.2 seconds. He also reached final of the Olympic Games 1,000 metre sprint but suffered a puncture and was narrowly beaten into the silver medal position, but the race was declared void when the time limit was exceeded. Johnson rode a 'Rover Path Racer' and the 'very cycle that took him to victory' is on display in the Heritage Cycling Museum at the Heritage Motor Centre in Gaydon, Warwickshire.[7][4][5] In September 1909 he set three world records at Herne Hill Velodrome, London, - the unpaced standing-start quarter-mile, three-quarter mile and one mile. The '28 seconds' quarter mile time stood as the world record for 21 years and as the British amateur record for 'at least 39 years'. It only lost its world status when the Union Cycliste Internationale (U.C.I.) changed the rules in 1948 and it was superseded by a slower time.[7] Johnson won the National Cyclists' Union (N.C.U.) quarter-mile championships in 1908, 1911 and 1912. He also won the one-mile championship in 1910 and 1911; and the five-mile championship in 1911.[7] The Golden BookVic Johnson's achievements were celebrated in 1948 when Cycling Weekly awarded him his own page in the Golden Book of Cycling.[6] References1. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/athletes/jo/victor-johnson-1.html |title=Victor Johnson Olympic Results |accessdate=2013-05-02 |work=sports-reference.com}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 1901 census - 22 Station Road, Erdington, Warwickshire, RG 13/2876, page 3 of 41 3. ^1 2 3 England & Wales Birth Index, Apr/Jun quarter 1883, Victor Louis Johnson, Aston registration district, volume 6d, page 435 4. ^Cycling - Men's Sprint and www.times-olympics.co.uk {{Webarchive|url=https://archive.is/20110629111542/http://www.times-olympics.co.uk/communities/cycling/cyclinghistory.html |date=29 June 2011 }} 5. ^Heritage collection, Profile and image of Victor Johnson 6. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 The Golden Book of Cycling - Vic Johnson, 1948.
