The Knutsford Penny Farthing Race
Which y'all may have heard of but I thought I'd pass it along anyway - I have never heard of it until today. I received my new Brooks saddle and copy number 3 of The Brooks Bugle which had an account of the subject race. The race is held in the UK, at Knutsford, every 10 years - every year there are two or more zeros in the year. The 2010 fun can be seen at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjEi218bI6w
There is a rider from Washington DC at this race and I wonder if it is the fellow I saw on the Mount Vernon Trail a year or two back.
And the great Knutsford Crash is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYPxD...6BEA5BE9160203
The 2000 race, which has more information about it, is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jouwk...deo&playnext=2
