London Cycle, an English publication for wheelmen, knows a thing or two about this country that not even the oldest inhabitant of the continent had found up to the time of London Cycle's arrival and cheerful dissemination of its information in our midst, In a re- cent Issue it says: A favorite ride of New York wheelmen is climbing Pike's Peak, a small moun- tain on the outskirts of the city. Riding Possible almost to the summit, the road being fairly steep and of a zigzag nature. In some parts the path is aw- ful, being barely discernible. Thanks, London Cycle, thanks! We hadn't noticed thie before, but after reading your paragraph we took a spin before breakfast to the Staked Plains of Colorado and found out that for a long time we had been missing thie Pike's Peak fun. Right yousare about the sigmaginess of the path and its vagueness in parta, but, oh! how exhfl- arating the pedalling up, and how diffu- sive and delightful breath when we get to the peakmost peak! |.the best part of the fun, old chap.
