I thought the community might enjoy this photo, circa 1895 (maybe?), of my great-grandmother Gertrude Cone and her elegant ladies' bicycle at the side of the Willamette River in Portland.

Gertrude Cone, aged about 17, in a Victorian riding outfit, standing with her ladies' bicycle at the riverside in Portland, Oregon, about 1895

Haha, I saw that right off, because I really want one for my baby commuter. Not that I wear long skirts often. But I could! Also they're super-cute and I like putting toys on my bicycles.
