    Featuring some very naff bikes IMO.

    I hope my partner can cope with the tabard's ties. I doubt the tabard
    will survive the gentlest cycle in the washing machine and will need to
    be *r*n*d afterwards.

    Still, the leaflet proclaims there'll be free Hovis sandwiches in the
    picnic area...

    Probably be a photocopy of a sandwich pictures to cut out and colour in ;-)

    Cue New World symphony, and many hungry cyclists.

    More like Dvorak meets Shaun of the Dead.
    Or Dvorak meets Little Shop of Horrors. "Feed Me! Feed Me Now!"

    Now I've looked at them I must agree, apart from maybe the Chopper and
    the Velocipede.

    So... what bikes do we think should be in the pack? An all-time
    classic list. Contributions please

    I think I read somewhere that it also features a Kris Holm unicycle
    (can't remember which model). So not all naff.
