cycling on the Prom

The weather forecast for Morecambe today was fog, but I hoped that it  was wrong (as it often is) and decided to go. We couldn't see much out in the bay but still had a good walk along the prom. Lots of birds to watch ... oystercatchers, shelduck and, I think, black-tailed godwits.

 A group of cyclists had stopped beside a cafe and this bike was leaning against the railings. When the rider appeared I was lucky enough to get a few  shots. It was the strangest bike I've seen being ridden, having a larger front wheel and smaller back one. I've looked on the internet and the best match I can find is a 'safety bicycle' from the late 19th Century. As I'm unlikely to see another it has to my blip for today.
