Riding a '38 Autocycle Deluxe
.... I put girls bike gears on my rusty DX. don't know the numbers. MUCH better than standard boys bike gearing of the day. what the heck were they thinking?
my brother is an antique dealer in California's Sierra Foothills where every road is uphill. he rarely if ever finds old bikes in his weekly yard sale trips, he tells me tales of the barns and things he goes into... 1800's stuff to modern, yet no bikes other than some 60's models and he has been doing it for 30 years. I don't think a lot of people rode bikes in these areas back in the day. too many hills and not enough room to ride on the side of the road..
