Fashion Bikes

Do you know, it seems as though the bicycle was invented this week?

This week I have seen lots of photographs of beautiful models, such as Laura Bailey, Lily Cole and Agyness Deyn, who ride their bikes whenever possible, making them, of course, 'uber cool'. Due to their influence it seems as though the bike has been hailed a new mode of transport. Chanel have even launched their own bike, costing a mere £6200, but it does have a padded saddle, quilted panniers and interlocking trademark C's. Would you? How I would love to see Jeremey Clarkson on Top Gear briefing that one - a McQueen for him maybe. Would James May ride Westwood? As long as the Hamster wore a helmet I wouldn't really mind what he rode. Suggestions please. Click here to read more .

For reasons other than fashion, I really do need to get my bike out. Please do not presume I am a victim of fashion if you see me being resuscitated by the side of the Peak District roads, it is for me merely a form of transport. I ride Decathlon not Chanel.
