Wow. Creepy. Consists almost entirely of ludicrously far-fetched and rare examples of “bad” bike riding. It would be interesting to construct a parallel narrative substituting car driving. (“Here’s Joe, driving his car up onto on the sidewalk!”)
These bicycle things are a wonderful treat!
Closing credits say MCMXLVII – isn’t that 1948??
Very cool, in any case.
