Just above the small wheel at the back there is a little stub sticking out of the frame tube. That's your help. You scoot along side, foot on the peg, then vault into the saddle. Get it right or suffer the consequences For stopping, slow down enough that you can scoot down the frame tube and put your foot on the peg before dropping off and coming to a halt. Looks like a modern replica. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Nice pic of an interesting machine. The poor guy riding it appears to be starving to death. Can someone buy him a sandwich? I think this was Frank's second bike. The first one had wooden wheels.

Scott? Stan? Cesar? Anyone other bike-types have any thoughts? Whatever the case, I'm pretty sure those aren't Campy rims... ;-) The guy is wearing what look like Shimano cycling shoes (I wonder why he doesn't have clipless pedals?), so he's obviously done a bit of cycling. I'd love to try a penny farthing - just to say I've done it. Apparently getting up and going is the tough part - that and stopping without doing an endo.
