have their model wheels ready for exhibit
iton before the close of this season. The
big makers expect no diminution In the
demand for wheels during the next five
years, and great as has been the output
this season greater one is being arlang-
ed for next year. One eastern agent mas
placed an order for 10. 600 wheels Tor 1896.
Los Angeles already has a solid cycle
factory that is turning out first-class
wheels of every description and at proper
prices.
The Examiner is now being carried
oaily to Redwood City by Howard Smith
of the Olympic Club wheelmen and oscar
Osen. the former crack racing man OF tie
Garden City cyclists. These riders reach
their destination hours before any train
goes down the road. and the patrons OF

A foreign exchange says: "In looking
at the photograph of one or two Amer
lean tracks we cannot help noticing their
splendidly picturesque surroundings. In
contemporary this week we notice a
view of a new California race path, situ-
possible. The middle sward is not en-
trely untrimmed, and consists of wild
shrubbery, while outside the clearance
for the spectators is some of the fine wild
untamed scenery so typical of the coun-
try. Here in England the surroundings
OF our race tracks are with one or two
notable exceptions, the reverse OF beauti-

The success of American light weight
bicycles seems to be thorn in the side
of the English manufacturer. Time and
again we have peen told by the English
cycling press that under no circumstan-
ces would wheels under twenty-six or
twenty eight pounds stand up on Ameri-
can roads. but the fact remains that bicy.
cles of the roadster type. twenty-one and
half pounds in weight have proved
the most successful for heavy road use.
1t has remained for American ingenuity
to demonstrate to our British brethren
that high grade bicycles can be made
strong as well as light, and that weight
does not in cycle construction constitute
the chief element of strength. The in
roads that American cycles are daily
making into the European market are
the most convincing evidence of thei:
