There are even those that argue that the first successful motor car was built
in a small bicycle shop on Milwaukee's near south side. I don't know if it
is still there, but I remember seeing a little storefront with a plaque to
that effect, when I was a kid. It will be interesting to see if that legend
is mentioned in this documentary.
