Text Appearing Before Image:
e rider, having thrown his bicycleinto the water, dived after it, swam across and landed on the otherside. He then rode over three or four miles of very rough andvaried country, including ploughed fields and swamp meadows, andhaving recrossed the river, regained Hanwell by some very roughlanes, lifting his machine over closed gates. Altogether he cov-ered a distance of about five miles, and his time was little morethan 41 minutes. Subsequently, a few well-known cyclists whowere among the visitors tried the machine, and rode over the mostuneven ground, up and down short and sharp hills and over bricksand other obstructions in a manner that greatly surprised the mil-itary men and others who were present.
