If we want to carry a pal on our cycle, let us avoid the police, which we cannot, and let us think of others who, in 1948, carried a passenger and who, today, are in their graves. Truly, no more stupid habit exists amongst some irresponsibles than picking up a passenger on a vehicle built for one. Last week two eyclists entered the Weston Post Office.
