Actually the list IS longer Sam!

Sunbeam was renown for the bicycles AND motorcycles. So was Rudge-Whitworth. And of course BSA, James and Sun. Motobecane ditto (well at least mopeds). I think even VeloSolex put their name on bicycles. Puch is another one.

So the next time some selfish idiot on a cell 'phone driving his SUV nearly runs me off the road, I'll grit my teeth and remember he's just part of a great wheeled industry "family"!

If I ever learn how to drive (or shall I say ever want to), I'll have to buy one of Lance's cycle friendly Subarus then. I think I'd rather have a Raleigh saloon from the 1920s...
