BICYCLE COLLECTORS AUCTION

bicycle-museum-auction2-q382zohwl0gqmp4bqirwcrm3s58o1e3dxddruaag2q-1

Welcome, fellow enthusiasts, to the ONLINE BICYCLE MUSEUM. Take one of the tours of the Museum to get a taste of cycling in the Victorian and Edwardian ages. Why not drop into THE BLOOMER CLUB to see what well-off ladies of the day were riding (and wearing)? In the DESIGN tours you can discover some of the strange frame styles built over the years. Tour the VIDEOS section if you fancy a bit of music and vintage cycling action.

And don’t forget to browse VINTAGE BIKES FOR SALE to select your own exclusive machine, many of them from that interesting era before the motor car took over.

‘Our’ era is a time 130-years-ago, now forgotten, but unspoilt by the gases and machinations of petroleum engines …when the humble but glorious SAFETY BICYCLE ruled the road.
