The penny-farthing

[Alon]

Does anyone in the lounge own a penny-farthing bicycle? If so, how did you come by it? Any idea where to get them and approximately how much they'd cost? I haven't found any on eBay. Oh, and post some photos if you don't mind sharing!

For those not familiar with the penny-farthing:

Years ago I knew of a website that sold repros. I always wanted to ride one but it is quite a drop if you fall off.
