I have to be honest, I don't really get the shopping bike thing, but that one is mighty cute!

nice bike, is that some sort of paint effect or does someone like it a bit too much (cough, objectophilia, cough)?

At Spoons in Sudbury....

This one is used for advertising. It's often chained to a post on the junction of Exchange Street and Gentleman's Walk, so I suspect it's probably not rideable, else I doubt it would still be around, although it is a well-loved restaurant, so maybe it wouldn't be a good thing to nick:

This one is locked in the butcher's in South Lynn because it is actually in working order, although it's seldom used now and the butcher says it's hard going once loaded up! I suspect it might be a fixie...

Seeing all these shop bikes reminded me I'd snapped this at the Welsh national museum, st fagans earlier this year:

Along with this wonderful advertising board
