Two of the riders have Berkeley Grizzly "Pedal Pusher" jerseys.
Grizzly Peak is a hill with a fairly steep road to top located in Berkeley, CA USA.
The altitude is 1,758 ft (536 m) which is fairly high considering that downtown Berkeley is only several hundred feet above sea level.

The picture is probably from the late 60s or early 70s. A number of well known US riders such as George Mount got their start in that area. |

The guy wearing the jersey with "SCIC" looks vaguely familiar.
Somebody related to you, Chas?  |

Portrait of the artist as a young man.... 
No relation or knowledge of who the "pretender" is!  |
