This Week’s Weird and Wonderful—June 19, 2026 (opens in new tab)

Much like the Emancipation Proclamation itself, the observance of Juneteenth has taken some time to catch on. We here at BaT have been observing the holiday for the past several years, but we got our work done early so as not to deprive you of this Weekly Weird and Wonderful feature. Today we've got a few bikes and boats, some rarefied fiberglass bodywork, a couple firsts, and an interesting last, among other things.
