For the past 5 months I have excitedly awaited this. Muriel's brother is a home inspector and has opportunity to see amazing bikes, which he enjoys texting me pics of. Not many are obtainable. Until now. Last July he found an unbelievable 1898 Glenwood out of the "safety bike" era when true bicycles came available as an improvement to the High-Wheelers and Pennyfarthings. I asked him if he could pursue it and he advised me it may be possible but I must be patient.
We moved back to Boyne in October and I reopened and relit my bikeshop passion. As for that 120yr old bicycle? Well, I pretty much shelved the excitement and Muriel's brother had not said a peep about it.
Then came Christmas Eve, we arrive back home after a festive night with family and all is quiet. My wife asked that I stay outside for a moment. Ok. By then, I knew some kind of surprise awaited me. I just never in my wildest dreams imagined seeing THIS....
