The Bicycle Museum of America, in rural Ohio, has one of the largest and most interesting collections of cycling artefacts in the world, with more than 700 bikes, of which 173 are on display.
NEW BREMEN, Ohio (AP) In a former hotel here in rural, western Ohio is a museum offering more than two centuries of bicycle history, from early high-wheelers to candy-hued 1960s Sting Rays. There's a 1901 ice bike, a kitschy 1949 Donald Duck artifact, a military-issued bike with a machine gun mount, bikes that appeared in movies (Pee Wee Herman's) or belonged to stars (Robin Williams), and lots of Schwinns.
