He's the guy who cycled around the world on one.</p> <p>A Penny fitted with Ortleib panniers is a remarkably odd beast, it has to be said. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3962#post-41465 Thu, 22 Sep 2011 09:39:56 +0000 DaveC 41465@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Is the Riverside Museum museum open now?

Don't think I'll be adding one to my shed but they are cool. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3962#post-41409 Wed, 21 Sep 2011 13:45:04 +0000 SRD 41409@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-14999044">Penny farthing 'back on the production line'</a></p> <p>BBc video news report </p>
