I'm sure it is much harder to cycle on grass?

Wow! It is difficult to ride such a bike on asphalt! This man is driving in the field!

That is a great photo! I would need a ladder. HaHa to climb aboard.

Really great shot, an artist on his high bike. How funny and cool to drive over the stubble fields.

It could almost be a sepia photo from another age! Quite amazing to see someone riding it

Rostrose said...

That's a great picture, dear Betty! I've never seen a penny-farthing rider in a field - the overall atmosphere is very nostalgic!
All the best from Austria, Traude
