The High-Speed Biker

• Watchlist

A grocer is seen having a few words with his assistant, preparatory to the latter starting off on his morning rounds. The little homily so annoys the assistant, that he departs from the service of the grocer, without even giving him a minute's notice. Finding himself in this quandary, the grocer casts his eyes around for a way out, and these fall on a fellow lounging at the street corner; he is immediately engaged to go round with the grocer's bicycle-carrier to get the orders. Off he starts, immediately coming to earth again, but not a bit dismayed, he again mounts, and, after three efforts, he dashes off on what proves to be an adventurous journey. His escapades are thrilling in the extreme, and must be seen to be appreciated. The film is one laugh from beginning to end.
