My contribution to the fish and the bicycle chronicles.

The James Starley reference - Once upon a time, I attempted to ride a bicycle that didn't have much air in its tyres. It was quite difficult, as one would imagine. I tried to stick with it and make it to my destination but somewhere along the way, I passed out. When I woke up, I realised that I was lying at the foot of a statue that said "James Starley - Founder of the Improved Bicycle".
‘A woman without a man is like a fish without a bicycle.’ - Gloria Steinem
ps - The last comment about the quote being actually from Irina Dunn is correct. I think I mentioned in another blog that this quote was wrongly attributed to Gloria Steinem. I wonder why I didn't correct it here! Thanks anyway, anonymous! :)
