The meaning of this
The title of this blog refers to a popular phrase from the 1890s, when bicycling was outrageously fashionable and all the world seemed to be "awheel." I publish short essays, photographs, images, thoughts, etc. about bicycles and bicycling that don't properly fit at my other blog, the Old Bike Blog. There is a bit of history, a bit of philosophy, a bit of nonsense. Please enjoy it, and check back often.
