Besides being a savvy businessman who manufactured over 1 million of the bike seats he designed, Garford was a cyclist who raced and used bikes to get around. He later sold his bike seat company and opened an automobile company (Studebaker-Garford), which he also later sold. Garford's former mansion is now the home of the Lorain Historical Society, which you can pedal by on your way to the North Coast Inland Trail in Elyria.
