THE FAMOUS PENNY FARTHING BICYCLE !
BICYCLES have been around
IN fact three hundred years
CYCLING covers lots of ground
YOU'RE better off with gears !
CYCLING'S healthy ~ cycling's good
LESS CO2 emission fears
EXPERIENCE it ~ you know you should !
EXPERIENCE it ~ you know you should !

Very well crafted and funny.
THANKS GARY ~ If we all rode BICYCLES we would all be fitter ~ richer and the global CO2 levels would plummet down from 400 ppm back to 250 ppm ! BRIAN
There'd also be a lot of sore bums. Give me a run across the hills anytime.
Mind you cycling would. Be a lot more fun if there were fewer cars.
Well written and a good fun read. I used to love cycling when the roads were less used but you wouldn't get in those lycra outfits and silly looking hats for all the tea in China. How much tea is there in China by the way?
Thanks MICHAEL ~ The tea production in China in 2015 was 2,250,000 metric tons ! That's a lot of TEA ! There are a lot of bikes in Cambridge but in most UK cities it is a bit of a HAZARD in 2017 ! Yours BRIAN
Hey Brian - earlier today, for the first time this year, I saw my first cyclist, in town, using a cycle lane and I haven't even heard my first cuckoo yet !! Is this a record?
Is that you on your big wheel Brian?
nice fun poem goes full circle.
YES INDEED WILLY ~ It a modern reproduction bike not an original ~ fun to ride ! BRIAN
You riding that bike forwards or backwards? You coming or going?! heehee.
And - about 4,673 million tons of tea, Michael? I dunno, just a wild guess! lol. Google probably will tell us if we bother to look it up.
Difficult to tell really ~ but once you master it ~ a penny farthing is like a unicycle ~ you can pedal it BACKWARDS. The 2015 production of tea in China was 2,250,000 metric tons. China is upwardly mobile and th production since 2000 has increased by over 300%. Thanks "O" for your comment ~ BRIAN
Good fun Brian. I would like a go on a penny farthing one day. Phil.G
Thanks PHIL in some Museums in the UK you can try one out ~ AT YOUR OWN RISK ~ ITS A LONG WAY TO FALL ~ HENCE THE HELMET ! Thanks BRIAN
Great job on this poem! I love bicycling! I'll have to tell you where I go later but it's great for families to get out and cycle. Great exercise! Another great sonnet! Hugs--Christina
Thanks CHRIS knew you would enjoy is one ! You'd look sweet upon the seat of a bicycle made for two ~ Cyclic HUGS ~ BRIAN
