It looks like it would be a lot better to ride downhill than up.

In Portugal it was usual to see such bikes. It was used by what we called "amoladores" (basically "sharpeners"). Men used to go from place to place, shapening knives, scissors, agricultural tools and also mending umbrellas. They used a pan's pipe to announce themselves and a shout of "Aaaaa... molador!" to bring people out of their houses with whatever needed sharpening/fixing.

I take my hat off to these guys.
BTW anyone else notice the rear tyre in the 2nd PIC - it looks completely flat.

It reminded me of an old window cleaner who cycled round with ladders on his shoulder (parallel to the bike) he only had one arm!

My partner also knew of him as did my father - not seen him for years - he was a real local character!!
