A s seen on KING-TV's Northwest Backroads, Sunday April 23, 2000 A Brief History of Railbiking R esearch shows that railbiking has been around nearly as long as railroads and bicycles. A railbike patent in the U.S. Patent Office database is dated 1869. Scores of patents for railbike systems were filed between 1880 and 1920 around the world. R ailbikes were once used by railroad companies for track checking, moving workers at work sites as well as going for assistance when the locomotives broke down. Telegraph companies also used railbikes to maintain telegraph lines that often followed railways. In the Midwest and other regions with sufficient winds, workers using railbikes sometimes put up sails to power them along the tracks. L ike its contemporary, the bicycle, railbike design went into decline with the advent of the internal combustion engine and the automobile. A few independently minded designers and tinkerers kept the concept alive for the last 90 years and today there is a resurgence of interest in railbiking.

Railbiking
The Folding Society gets a mention on this web page devoted to last years velocipede (railbike) rally held at Hampton Loade station on the Severn Valley Railway in the UK. Looks like the velocipedes themselves also qualify since their outriggers seem to fold in.
Readers with long memories may recall that the London Underground apparently used an f-frame Moulton converted to a rail bike. posted by Paul Evans at 7:12 PM

Some years ago I saw a film, made in Australia, called "Frog Dreaming" In
it was that kid who starred in "ET" (Henry Thomas was it). The film
contained scenes of a bicycle converted for running on a railway. The track
was narrow gauge, but does anyone know where? One station sign said Wood
End, or something similar. Any details of the film location would be
appreciated.
Thanks!

railbiking to the future.
well some time has passed i suppose since our last stint but i have good excuses, i've been in vermo, namely white river jct the past two weekends skiing and sorting through the hundreds of baseball cards in my basement. i figured i deserved a little time off, my girlfriend broke up with me and i needed a little time to fade out in the wilderness. this weekend was actually extra narly cause it was my pop's 50th bday and all of my family was there, being my mothers 9 brothers and sisters with their 4 element families. ridic.
i made this poster for the party, the photoshop cut and pasting got hella sloppy towards the end (deadlines make me work, just not well) but i finally got it finished at 8 en la noche on thursday so i had to take the midnight bus to vermo to get there on time. well while in south station i sat for an hour and then got on the bus and an hour into the ride realized that i left the poster at south station. after much arguing via telephones with south station the poster was lost and on friday i drove all the way back to boston to make another...i don't mind driving though, i'm most comfortable riding the highways at night, most of the time its what i do in vermont anyways. example: when i was sharing a hotel room with my sis' boyfriend, my solution to boredom was to make the 2 hour drive to ny state and back so i could look across lake champlain, why not?!

Railbiking ongoing tinkering and exploring, begun 2004 A quiet and humble underground of home-spun inventors have been experimenting with different ways to put a bicycle on an abandoned railroad for years, and I am merely an upstart with a lot to learn. Many elements of this project are in line with the same motivations behind much of my other work- that of blurring the lines between what is allowed and what is illicit in terms of property, borders, and land use. This design, made from an old three-speed cruiser that my friend and I found on the street in front of our house, uses a lifting wheel-guide and outrigger attachment designed by Richard Bentley . Much of the work on the bicycle itself was done at Free Ride! , a bike recycling collective in Pittsburgh with which I am a coordinator.
