WWII Nostalgia and Bicycles!

I've always been interested in war history, with WWII being the obvious fav. Just saw this great photo from England 1942 on the NYCfixed board:


Three American military personnel, possibly ground crewmen, sit on their bicycles in front of a B-17 bomber named 'Berlin Sleeps II,' at Polebrook, Northamptonshire, England, fall 1942. The crew and plane originate from the 97th Bombardment Group of the 8th Bomber Command (later 8th Air Force) which was stationed at Polebrook from June until November of 1942.
