The penny-farthing was an early form of what transportation?

Thanks for this question. I always have had trouble remembering the name of this bicycle type :)

My dad made us things as we had little as kids and he made us a child sized penny farthing... brilliant memories made riding it.... ❤️

Velocipede, as in, "it's Faster than Walking"

Memories of Cantinflas riding one at the beginning of 1956's "Around the World in 80 Days"

I actually got to ride a collector's real one about 50 years ago. it took a couple of goes to get the hang of it. Turning corners was interesting as the seat was fixed and you had to kind of bend your legs around the wheel. getting up and down took some practice to master. a very memorable experience.

Arohanui, I missed the connection as well, but if you've ever witnessed someone riding one of these bicycles, it does sorta put one in mind of a suppressed gastro intestinal uproar.

Player #10963784, I get the joke, but being born & raised in Oklahoma, I really can't poke fun at anyone's accent.
