French Paris charm 60's, Velo Solex-US 15o mls/Gln, like it or not

You running out of petrol, no problem you pedal like a bycycle.

Read this Wallstreetjournal Test drive, video report have some fun!

One look at the distinct shape of a Velosolex conjures flashbacks.

For some it's to postwar Paris, where the motorized bikes made getting around cheap, easy and chic. Robert Redford braved New York traffic on one in 1975's "Three Days of the Condor." And wasn't that Steve McQueen astride a Velo on the set of his auto-racing movie "Le Mans?"
