Bicycle Culture...


It being St. Patrick's Day I am in the midst of the annual watching of the Quiet Man and am reminded of the cycling scenes, particularly the tandem ride of Mary Kate (Maureen O'Hara) and Sean (John Wayne). Not as well known, perhaps, as the Raindrops are Falling on My Head cycling scene from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, but a classic none-the-less. I was fortunate enough to visit the Quiet Man museum in Cong, Ireland on my first trip to the Emerald Isle.
