Hi , I have never seen these velocipedes in this country but two years ago
I was fortunate to work for a day in a a lead/silver mine near Freiburg on
the western edge of the Black Forest. The mine is being developed to open
up as a show mine and tunnels have to be blasted to carry sewage away from
the town's water supply. There was an old velocipede there which I rode
along the rails at a frightening speed down hill. It carries two people
sitting one behind the other and has a foot brake. I have a photo which I
could send by e-mail if anyone is interested, MIke Breakspear
