I don't think we entered the war till 1916, maybe its from somewhere in Fance or something...

The style of the bike is certainly very, very old.
True story, involving a shovel, not a bicycle: During the construction for a railroad south of Buffalo circa 1905, in a premature detonation of dynamite, a shovel got wedged in a nearby tree. As late as 1975 the blade and a stub of the handle were still visible, but the tree had grown around the wound much like the bike in the photo. (Saw it myself.)

They must have have had better rubber back in 1914.

My question is how did it get so far off the ground? Trees grow out on the trunk, and only up from the tops, so unless the bike was left there pretty far off the ground I question the picture's veracity.
