"Now, Mr. Slade, do you think that the 'ordinary bicycle' will ever again take the lead in cycling?""Well, to be frank with you, I do not. It is a subject that gives rise to a great amount of discussion, many believe it will, but I think the majority agree that for all practical purposes it is doomed."
