Antique Game: Excersise Bike

What. A. Crappy. Game.

The author of the site says this 30's/40's exercise bike was supposed to be a way to relax your tire legs. Actually that's what the sign on this coin-op piece of junk says.

"You insert coin which raises break bar on front week. You can then easily pedal the bike and turn a knob to make the pedaling harder or easier. After a short time period, the break bar drops down, making it hard to pedal again. thereby ending your ride."

This probably sold really well, along with the washing dishes simulator and the fold your laundry coin-op.
