Unless they moved it BACK to Dayton, the original Wright Bros bike shop
is actually in Dearborn, MI at Greenfield Village.

I know. But Dayton has re-built the bike shop, supposedly to spec, in its original location.

I've always wondered which idiot local politician mortgaged Dayton's future to Henry Ford, way back when?

You folks are so cynical...

The city was going to tear it down; it was built in a flood plain. Turns out a short time after Ford moved the shop the
area was flooded anyway. The bike shop they have 'restored' is something like the second shop they opened, and is not
the shop where they built the flyer.

All of Dearborn Village and the Ford museum is a very cool stop, if possible. I think it is one of the best monuments to
the industrial age in the USA.
