Luis Vivanco, a cultural anthropologist at the University of Vermont, loves bicycles.  His Bicycles, Illustrated blog explains - and illustrates - his passion.  Below is a one of his research-based comics that explore the associations between bicycling and health through the medicalization of bicycling during the first bicycle boom of the 1890s.  Download Prof. Luis Vivianco's Illustrated Exploratory of Nineteenth-Century Bicycle Ailments, Maladies & Injuries here.
