The Carolina Rambler
Finally riding a big boys bike
Hello everybody. I went out on a nature walk today and encountered something unexpected. A 1930s prewar Rollfast bicycle! I was in a stand of old woods dating back probably to the 1800s. I saw some colonies of wildflowers and I went over closer to take a look. There, amongst the colonies of plants I saw something odd sticking out of the ground, figured maybe some old farm equipment, and there it was, it was an old bike. I would reckon that this bike has been out there for perhaps 60 years. Now obviously, a bike of this sort given its extremely decrepit state is of no monetary or useful value other than perhaps the badge which is still good; but never the less it was still neat to be able to find something like that. Something you don't see everyday!
Here are the woods.
Probably the first time its been touched by human hands and stood up since it was abandoned out there. Has an early New Departure Model D Hub.
Here is the colonies of beautiful little plants growing near the bike. So stripey!
