The name of this brings back memories to me of a neighbor whose narrow escapes on a bicycle would make an easy entry in the Guinness Book of Records. It was usually on a late Sunday afternoon when our neighbor would be cycling home from several hours of drinking. From the pub, he would cycle ferociously on his bicycle, which had no brakes, mudguards or very little else. All that made sense of his ‘transport’ was two wheels, rapid pedaling and the frame of the bicycle on which he sat with his jacket open to the wind like the sail of the ship. We would watch him as he disappeared down our road, darting from one side to the other. I named this reel in memory of our famous cyclist Ben Murphy, who on other occasions inspired me as a child with his gruesome playing of the mouth organ!
