Somewhat Expensive.
The Bicycle Ride. The circumstances connected with a charge against a Greymouth lady, who was fined at the Magistrate’s Court recently for riding a bicycle after sunset with out a light, are rather humorous. It is said that the lady, who has not ridden a cycle for about 30 years, saw a young lady friend with her machine, decided to have a little ride, She noticed a man just ahead on the roadway, in the darkness, and hoped he would get out of her way and not be run over. The man stood his ground —he was a policeman-! After having to pay 15s far ridin g a cycle without a light, and 10s for riding a cycle not equipped with a red reflector, the unlucky lady will probably keep oft bicycles for another 30 years.
