Oliver

This is Oliver who has been riding these bikes for years. He is in a race here and got so far ahead that he put his legs over the handlebars to wait for the other to catch up!

The helmet was probably a good idea - but it’s a little ‘out of chracter for such a contraption, isn’t it? :-)

[Maggiemae]

@bankmann I think they have to wear a helmet here Mr B and this one is better than the bicycle helmets that people wear!

[Lou Ann]

Such a good sport! Very cool photo!

[Allison Williams]

[Beryl Lloyd]

[Valerie Chesney]

A super shot.

[Maggiemae]

@beryl He was moving forward Beryl. If it was still he surely would fall off!

[Marnie]

Oh crikey, what marvellous balance he must have! I'm amazed that those things stay upright!

[Dawn]

Oh wow hes got great balance

[Babs]

How on earth can he perch on the penny farthing without falling off.

[Sally Ings]

Wow, he looks so relaxed up there on his penny farthing. Fabulous candid capture

[Liana Bull]

Now he is just showing off! Actually a great capture. Looks like fun.

[Diana]

amazing capture, I would not even be able to get up there!

[Maggiemae]

@onewing Actually they are so high up there that if the bike starts to go out of control, they just jump off!

[haskar]

And it does not fall over! Great capture.
