About this person
Tillie Anderson was a road and track cyclist. Born in Skåne, Sweden in 1875, Anderson emigrated to Chicago in 1891 at the age of 16. At 18, she had saved enough money working as a seamstress to buy her first bicycle. During the summer of 1895, she took part in the race over the Elgin-Aurora (Ill.) century course and broke the century record. She later traveled around the country taking part in six-day bicycle races for women, which involved racing at top speed two hours each evening for six consecutive days. Anderson was 20 years old when the League of American Wheelmen recognized her as the best woman cyclist in the world. In 2000, Anderson was posthumously inducted into the United States Bicycling Hall of Fame.
