Title: Some PBP fiction
Post by: LittleWheelsandBig on 01 March, 2020, 10:57:44 am

Last century, Tom Shaddox wrote a story about an American lady riding PBP. The story includes several real people that I’ve met and actually inspired me to do PBP03 on an ancient Moulton Stowaway Duomatic.

Despite some inaccuracies, typos and out-of-date PBP details, others might enjoy a few minutes of reading.

Very good.

Not tempted to complete long rides on a Moulton though

Moultons are fun to ride and very comfortable though. For me, 3 x PBP on various Moultons, 2 x PBP on tandem, 1 x PBP on 700C geared solo. The one on the old Moulton was the most fun.
