Penny Farthing Bicycle

Penny Farthing Bicycle
I spotted this well-dressed cyclist and his Penny Farthing in Chichester, chatting to some shoppers about his unusual form of transport. It's obviously a replica, but a very nice one and just as difficult to ride!

buonacoppi, Rosalyn Hilborne, Diane Putnam, HappySnapper and 7 other people have particularly liked this photo

Good opportunity taken there Keith. The gentleman looks vaguely familiar (Possibly a TV appearance), I like his mode of travel, I guess once they get going the bicycle would be very fast.

Thank you Maurice........can't say I remember him from anywhere, it was the bike and his dress that drew my eye.

I expect you'd cover a lot of ground with that big wheel - but I'm not sure it would be very comfortable (or stable) and it's a long way down if you fall off :-))
