Still very hot (relatively speaking) across the pond.
Out for a morning ride on the 'Cycles Morot' truss-bridge framed cycle from Lagny sur Marne, near Paris, France..... View attachment 1450105

That's right, it's a spare (very) vintage inner tube.
Just for show as it doesn't hold air too well.
Red ones are quite rare in England, but very suitable for a French bike of that age.
Just wish I could find some nice old faded red 700A tyres to fit on the bike.
The 'Iver Johnson' company certainly got that frame right when they originally designed it, so many French companies eventually copied it; "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery"so they say.
We're definitely blessed when it comes to ancient brick and stone work too.
