Next up: The 1964 Moulton 4 Speed. Moulton is an iconic, revolutionary brand, still manufacturing bikes from the castle at Bradford on Avon, not far from Shakespeare's home town.
In the early 1960s, Huffy served as the U.S. importer for Moultons; that's my bike's immigration route. It's the least-ridden of all the bikes in my stable, but definitely turns some heads at cycling events. #BikeNite #BikeTooter #MoultonBikes
Moulton 4 Speed bicycle, in dove grey, rests on its kickstand against a cloudy sky at sundown. A red rear tail light is on; a reed basket hangs from the handlebars. The Moulton's rear bike rack is empty. A marshy wetland is in the background.
An old man wearing a bicycle helmet with scottish tartan, a Hawaiian shirt (blue and white), blue shorts stands in front of a Moulton 4-Speed bicycle. The bike carries a wicker basket on the handle bars. The wheels are small compared to nearly every other bike (16 inches). The bike frame's color is off-white; some call it dove grey. A stone "MISSISSIPPI RIVER" placard is inlaid into the sidewalk. Two other vintage cyclists with their vintage English bicycles are in the background, next to a sandstone wall.
