Triolet and the old motor-cycle of the glaciers

During the Forties, an ingenious as much as odd French mechanic made some curious changes in the hind wheel of this moto, replacing the original wheel with two ones, larger and taller, so that the moto was able to march on the Argéntiere Glacier, which is almost perfectly flat in its middle. Now, this singular motor-cycle has been showed on the flat roof of the Refuge d'Argentiére... View from Refuge d'Argentière
