Vintage Runwell bicycle

This is a british 1930s vintage bike with a lovely basket sitting on the front wheel and a cool saddle position slightly in front of the seat tube of the frame, a la Runwell apparently. Check out this entire restoration project of a Runwell bicycle on the Old Bike Blog (great cycling  blog by the way), complete with historical notes on the Runwell Bicycle company.

Thank you so much for the link you left in the comments at my Old Bike Blog. I haven't done a search for Runwells online for a while, so I hadn't seen this. This is the first "in the flesh" Runwell I've seen besides mine. Thanks again, very exciting!

No probs Thom. I am going to see the bike this weekend hopefully and see how much work it requires. Your restoration is definitely an inspiration. Shame these too cycles may never meet!
