<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">John Kemp Starley was

was known as the father of the cycle industry.</font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Sutton separated from
the partnership with JKS after a time, but by then the name
'Rover' had been applied to their products because the buyer

<pre wrap="">Topic: The Rover Safety bicycle
Hello all, Might anyone be able to shed some light ( a link) on The Rover
Safety bicycle? Rover claimed to have been the originator of the 'new'
cycle with 2 wheels of the same size (instead of the old bone-shakers)
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you,,
BTW, I think your RoveAmerica is ONE COOL EVENT!!!!!!! Keep up the great
work.

I have posted photos from RoveAmerica in mid June at these three links:
Thursday/Friday; <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://goo.gl/photos/a8X4oqjKn78HeQSa6">https://goo.gl/photos/a8X4oqjKn78HeQSa6</a>

Click on any photo in each set for a full-size image, and from there you
can click through each photo or run a slide show.
A subset of these photos along with some by Dave LaChance will be
appearing in an article about the event that I have sent in for the next
RCCC Roverview. Many of you are RCCC members, but for those not as
familiar with the club that hosts us here on Rovernet, membership is
very reasonable, especially if you opt for electronic distribution of
Roverview. Editor Vern does a very professional job with the quarterly
publication.

I'll pick up again on Bill's topic of over a month ago, and add thanks
to all who traveled from near or far to participate in the event. Also,
there were a few regulars with schedule conflicts that we missed seeing
this year and we look forward to seeing everyone again next year.
