CYCLING HAPPENINGS.

Chainless wheels do not necessarily
mean bevel gears. Spur wheels, en-
gaging in direct alignment, are much
more used than the bevel gear arrange
Inent.
Jimmie Michael intends to use n mo-
tor cycle for pacing purposes in time
trials. 1t will be a great novelty for
the spectators, but it must make some
of them think that racing and exIliDi-
tion riding is getting more mechanical
every year.
Dealers are crying that unless prices
advance the industry of bicycle max
ing will disappear from America. That
is an astonishing view to take of the
situation. The cheapness Of bicycles
makes them easier to be Lad, and of
course more will be bought. How,
then, can they become less plentiful or
popular?
A New York investigator has discov-
cred that cycling makes a girl pigeon
toed; and it certainly looks as if it would
have that effect. The tendency of men
and women alike is to toe i'll while push
ing the pedals, and it looks well enough
on the wheel; but when off the wheel the
rider is almost sure to have n slouchy
gait that is anything but graceful.
