Time to perhaps to revisit this old favourite

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kP1KxPjh4RM

on which a Dawes Don Juan or a Phillips Fleur de Lys or a Raleigh Super Lenton or a BSA Gold Vase or a Sun Manxman would all be entirely suitable and welcome and go together like new potatoes and mint. And way more civilised than starting a time trial on the Bath Road at 0530 hrs. on a Sunday morning.

Oh, I had forgotten that Dawes had those wacky Victorian sewing machine do-dads on their mudguards. On reflection, maybe Barrie has a point afterall...
