There is no denying that Marin is a big part of the history of the bicycle, and the Marin Museum of Bicycling will display a selection of bikes from the Igler Collection with pieces dating back to the 1860s. The Igler Collection will form one of two permanent displays at the museum, while the other will be the Mountain Bike Hall of Fame.
Among the collection is an 1868 “boneshaker” velocipede from the first bicycle builder, Ernest Michaux of Paris. The collection also includes an 1880s Coventry Rotary tricycle, the design that held human-powered speed records until improved high-wheel bicycles, such as the collection’s 1886 Rudge, were able to break the records. The collection also features a 1898 Pierce shaft-drive bike, which was that company’s top model until it launched its Pierce Arrow automobile. The Marin Museum of Bicycling, which will double as a cultural center for Marin cyclists, expects to open its doors to the public later this year. Museum construction is underway in downtown Fairfax at 1966 Sir Francis Drake Boulevard.
