Forget "Bicycle Repair Man" -- what about "The Cycling Tour" ?

THERE'S real vintage lightweight content. The Devon countryside. The pump caught in the pantsleg, throwing one off one's tourer, damaging one's comestible supplies in the most fascinating ways. Clodagh Rodgers and Trotsky. Clodagh Rodgers becoming Trotsky in the French countryside and forcing Pither into a bit of nocturnal cyclocross. The usual Monty Python.

But what is Pither riding? Someone must know. I've checked the archives and cannot believe this remains unresolved.
