Not only can he ride it - but he has ridden it round Australia

I was on my way home from Bicycle Victoria's Bike Futures Conference, when I bumped into Phil McDonald, Port resident, and his pennyfarthing in Bay St. Was it back to the future?
Phil rode this very cycle around Australia in 1988 raising over $100k for Rotary.
Phil organises amazing cycle rides in different parts of Australia. See www.alltrails.com.au for more
