For historical bike nerds!
Classic and vintage bikes are somewhat of a new vested interest for me but I can't get enough of them. I love historical bikes. History of the bicycle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Seriously, some of these are so remarkable and yet some are so ridiculous to picture now. Regardless, I'm so into looking at my sleek Felt F5 and thinking about the history and innovation behind it.

Welcome to the C&V club. Yes, the history of bicycles is fascinating. One of my favorite books is Frank Berto's "The Dancing Chain," which traces the development of derailleur gearing.
