Strange one this.

There’s apparently an unsubstantiated story that while Lenin was in London in 1907 he had himself a little cycling holiday in Torquay in Devon.

Well, maybe he did, or maybe he didn’t, but it is true that Lenin did ride a bike while in exile in Paris later on, and even successfully took a motorist to court for crashing into him and wrecking his bicycle, so I guess it’s possible he rode a bike in England as well, and just as in Paris, may have gone for some pretty substantial day rides
