EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, estimated to date back to 1887, captures the spirit of an outing filled with excitement and camaraderie as a woman gracefully rides a three-wheel bicycle, known as a tricycle, while being followed closely by a group of men on high-wheel, or penny-farthing, bicycles. The tricycle, offering greater stability and ease for women, was a popular alternative to the more challenging penny-farthings that dominated the bicycle scene during this era. The women's liberating newfound freedom of movement, combined with the exhilarating sensation of speed and fresh air, made bicycling a beloved pastime and symbol of modernity. The men, dressed in their Sunday best, appear to be in high spirits as they eagerly chase after the woman, their high-wheel bicycles, with their large front wheels and smaller rear wheels, creating an intriguing contrast to the woman's tricycle. The scene is likely taking place in a scenic location, with lush greenery and picturesque surroundings adding to the idyllic atmosphere. This photograph not only serves as a testament to the growing popularity of bicycling as a sport and form of exercise, but also highlights the social dynamics of the time, as women and men enjoyed shared experiences while maintaining their distinct roles and modes of transportation. The image is a delightful reminder of the simple pleasures and joy that bicycling brought to people over a century ago.
