Pennies in the Park

Posted on

A Festival of Cycling in Thoresby park. Today saw us Piping at Thoresby Park on an overcast and chilly day. This event was organised by "Muddy" Waters and was a spectacular weekend of unicycle and penny farthing racing. I have never seen so many of these machines in one place at one time, it was great. We added some entertainment between races and had the pleasure of playing during the feature event which was a 1 hour penny farthing race. I had the oppertunity of riding a penny farthing but wearing a kilt and them being so tall, I thought discretion is the better part of valour and declined. A good all round event with plenty of stalls and things to do.
