From: A land that time forgot

Bikes: the ever shifting stable loaded with comfortable road bikes and city and winter bikes

Come ON, now!

Temperance and bicycling were once closely wedded in America, didn't cha know, I-Like-to-Bike? I think Carrrie Nation had a tall wheeler.

It was the early granolas, the American health movement -

back when people would teetotal, but could subscribe to a regimen of landalum laced tonics.

But bikes and the temperance movement were definetly kissing cousins. Not that I endorse any such nonsense.
