THE VELOCIPEDE MUSEUM, LOCATED AT 414 DELAWARE STREET IN HISTORIC OLD NEW CASTLE, DELAWARE, EXHIBITS A COLLECTION OF VELOCIPEDES, TRICYCLES, BONESHAKERS AND BICYCLES DATING FROM THE 1860'S TO THE MID 1960'S. THE MUSEUM IS OPEN SATURDAYS FROM 11-5PM AND ADMISSION IS FREE.

I have never been there. New Castle seems to be 30mi from Philly.

If someone knows about mass transit from Philly to New Castle or Wilmington Del please post. It would make an nice day trip from NYC, who really wants to see those fruitty pictures at the Barnes. I think the 'chinatown bus' lines go to Wilmington FWIW.
