I’ll admit, I was nervous before getting on a penny farthing. The towering wheel & vintage frames look both fascinating & intimidating. But from the moment I met Neil, all that fear began to fade. His calm confidence, clear explanations & genuine enthusiasm turned what seemed impossible into something achievable. Neil started with the basics, walking us through the bike’s history & mechanics before demonstrating step by step of how to mount, bike & dismount safely. Before I knew it, I was confidently cruising along on my own! Riding through the stunning surroundings including down The Mall & around Buckingham Palace was an absolute thrill. Locals and tourists waved, cheered, & I couldn’t help but feel like a celebrity from another era. By the end, what started as a nerve-wracking challenge had become one of the most enjoyable and unique experiences I’ve ever had. Do yourself a favor & book this experience. You’ll leave with a huge smile & a legendary story to tell!
