1905: Yes, another detour—in the US of A

I was busy uploading more images in les melange when I came across a great batch of yarns from the colonies, including a record braking trans-continental trek on a Thomas. And a town that fined motor cyclists for motor cycling. And two watery motor cyclists: a Brit who set fire to a river and a Jerry who was caught out by a raised drawbridge. And an American reaction to a British Fairy. Enjoy; I’m going back to the pictures.
