And probably where it should have stayed ...
On the new bike, it's likely that the fork tubes will bend before the spring compresses.

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
Mine was cat sick yellow too!
Tho' mine was an A Reg and had a white topbox. I took the front basket off to improve the aerodynamics.
The other kids in the 5th year took the piss, but I was the only one who wasn't catching the bus, pedalling or getting a parental lift.

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
From the Lyon expo du 2 roues -
Even I thought this was a little too much (and that's unusual!)
And this was behind it!! LOL
WTF can steer with those bars???
I'm pretty sure the plant isn't part of the bike! The bike was interesting - not sure what it is and why, but I sort of vaguely liked it!!
Just bloody wierd!! -

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
Coincidentally, a few days ago I was chatting with someone (who I'd not seen for about 30 years!) who knows him. Had included Voyager's Voyager in a book (its previous owner was quite famous in the motoring world).

Re: interesting bikes found randomly..
We end up only torturing ourselves.
