WC Fields in a high wheeler with Sennett’s Bathing Beauties offer a hand to the comedy star, pedaling a penny-farthing along the beach (no easy feat). Part of a surf-side shoot for Paramount Pictures, circa 1934.
 
Jimmy Edwards and Eric Sykes

Jimmy Edwards and Eric Sykes (on the handlebars) take off from the Soho section of London, set to cycle all the way to Eastbourne, where the duo are to star in a 1973 revival of their popular stage farce Big Bad Mouse. Afterwards they’ll take the play to other towns, heading hither and thither by yon tandem bike.
