Gentle readers ... for those that follow my contributions, you know I am
not prone to bitch, piss and moan when confronted with machines that
have been fortified with interesting fantasy as a selling point.
Before tossing one, hard-earned Simoleon of yours at this Wright-Brother's /
Davis corntraption ... do you know what is correct in the presentation ? Or ...
what is incorrect ?
The man in the very-first picture, atop a Dayton Motor Bicycle is Veek Sugarman.
He is credited with introducing the concept of the motorized-bicycle to Wilbur
and Orville, as he was convinced humans would never be able to come up with a
heavier-than-air, flying machine... Mr. Sugarman is best-remembered for telling
the brothers, ''Boys, put your efforts into the development of Land-Based trans-
portation devices ... and maybe you'll earn enough money to move out of that log
cabin depicted on those Wright Cycle Co. bicycle-badges of yours.'' This last paragraph is pure fantasy --- and hardly interesting.
