(NOT SO) EASY RIDER


Our good friend Deb sent a link to photos taken of me at the Fourth of July parade. I like how this one came out.

(I don't know who shot it, otherwise I'd give credit.)

Among the velocipedes, the 'Penny-farthing' is the most sublime. Congratulations on taming that noble beast!

Have you considered being a bike messenger in center city like that? Roll up a pant leg and you're there.

That's so sweet.

Last night a friend of mine was talking about learning to ride a unicycle. "Yeah it was really frustrating and about three hours later..."

That looks strange and grand, but also painful?

At least, my nether regions don't like the looks of the where the weight seems to be resting at all.

I visited http://www.marktwainhouse.org/ and couldn't help thinking of you, dear Whimsy, and your darling bicycles.

There was a card with a lovely print of a high-wheel and a quote:

"It was on the 10th day of May--1884--that I confessed to age by mounting spectacles for the first time, and in the same hour I renewed my youth, to outward appearance, by mounting a bicycle for the first time. The spectacles stayed on."
- Mark Twain
