Last August the City of Frederick hosted the only high wheel bike race in the US. The course circled two blocks of the historic district. The winner is the person who completes the most laps in an hour. Men's winner was Brian Caron completed 41 laps. The women's winner, Sherl Kennedy completed 38 laps. This years race will be August 15, 2015.

Never seen so many penny farthings together in one place. It must have been a great race to watch. You've covered it well in your pics here really good.
Neat captures Lew, I've never seen this before.
I never would have thought....
Those must be hard to stay on. I was going to think that you were going to say the winner was the one who could stay on the bike for the whole course without falling off.
That is so cool! I almost want to ride one, except for fear I'd probably immediately fall off. :)
