Really Useful Bikes

I've just discovered a company, near where I work, who delight in the name of Really Useful Bikes.

A gentle stirring of the forthcoming Copenhagenization of Britain.

A visit to their premises on the way home from work is in order.

Because.

I feel a new bike coming on...

Now, which one shall I get?

I think that it'll be the upgrading of my old Dawes Hybrid with a Xtracycle Free Radical kit to begin with.

A cycling revolutionary, eh!

Well, the British tabloid press frequently announce that "cyclists are revolting".

Happy New Year from the Che Guevara of cycling... ;-)
