Penny-farthing

Penny-farthing
Ordinary High Standard. I took my usual shortcut through the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Skogskyrkogården when I saw him cycling towards me. So I stopped and jumped off my eBike. Grabbed the camera bag, got the camera out, ready to shoot, but he was already past me, shouting, I have no brakes you know! So I ran after him on the sidewalk and managed to get this photo.

Nice shot but it looks to me a bit dangerous to ride such a bicycle but a superb view of your fellow road users.

No brakes sounds a bit scary. Great effort in chasing down after your photo, I like it.

Good for you that you got this shot. How does he get going again after stopping? I would need a ladder.
