Hi
We are a small group of cycling enthusiasts seeking to buy, rent or borrow up to ten old style Penny Farthings for a weekend charity fund raising event at the end of 2014.
Can anyone help us in our search ?
I look forward to hearing from you.

At the Smithfield Criteriums in London this summer the Old Ordinary race had 24 riders, many on new machines. I got the impression that it there is a growing interest - one stall seemed to be a manufacturers as it listed details of several new ones so there could be several avenues for you to try.

I think retro models are still being made, but if you want originals I think big bucks are needed
