It is the opinion of good judges that with a safety specially built to suit his great height - about 6ft 3in - he will make as clean a sweep of the safety championships and records as he has with the higher wheel. ...  Osmond's first flirtation with the safety on the path was at Devonshire Park, Eastbourne, August 27th, 1890, mounted on a beautiful and graceful Minnehaha safety pneumatic tire, shod by the [[Iroquois Cycle Co]]., Queen's-road, Bayswater, London.'<ref>Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News - Saturday 18 October 1890</ref>
