Finally got around to seeing the bike exhibit at St. Lawrence Gallery. It does not disappoint but leaves you wanting more, not to mention planting the seed for some projects that I wish I had the time to folllow through on. Those turn of the century ones have been restored with great care. The 1930 CCM Flyer with wood rims was............... too much.

Last year there was a wood rimmed bike at the Sunday market across the street that needed more than a little love. Restoring something like that is another world all together, but one that's got me interested. That was about the time when my in-laws started sending me these monthly volumes on the history of the bicycle. Each one comes with a miniature bike of significance in terms of the evolution from the velociped to the present.
