Wow!! He looks great for 80.
A friend of mine used to love riding these bikes. He even taught me too. He would have loved this episode. So I forwarded on to his children to watch. Hopefully you two more families watching you program. Cheers from Minnesota, USA. Skillet

I had the chance to ride a penny-farthing when I was a lot younger. It is an acquired skill that is nothing like riding a "standard" bike. I was always terrified riding one.
Why didn't you tell us what happened when owner picked it up.
Great video and great repair keep it up i am also a happy penny-farthing owner
Great vid to start my day. Thank you, Quest!
I own one of these lovely machines. They are an absolute joy to ride. One must be careful, though. A crash could do some serious damage to both the rider and the bike.
I loved it.
Hi there's a DayZ streamer over on Twitch Called "Sour Sweet" he rides and collect's Penny-Farthing Bikes and wears and collects Monocles too👍😎👍
What happened to the owner & his reaction 🤔
He does not look 80!

Yeh, the wife does.
Are the ones with the smaller wheel in front and the larger in the back also called Penny Farthings?
Be careful when approaching low bridges else your Top Hat get knocked off.
Interesting.
I wonder. It would be a trip to try to ride 🤪
