From Flickr: “Cyclist, in Swansea area.” by Toronto Public Library Special Collections

Next week kicks off Bike to Work month. In celebration, we hope to share some of the cylcing-related pictures and ephemera from our Digital Archive. This week’s contribution is a young cyclist from the Swansea neighbourhood. Her picture was taken around 1900, when cycling conferred a new freedom on women in particular.
