Great Invent ions of Cycling 1869: The saddlebag
CYCLING WEEKLY|January 13, 2022
It seems incredible now, but penny-farthing riders managed to resist the temptation to make a long, snake-like bag that would cover the entirety of their machine’s frame. If they had, the pastime of penny-farthing packing (and perhaps with it the gravel-farthing) might actually have taken off.
Great Invent ions of Cycling 1869: The saddlebag
