Raleigh and Flying Scot



Ok, two bikes in the one photo for you here. And both very interesting. In the foreground, an older Raleigh girls bike complete with kickstand and flowery painted chain guard (which you can't see in this pic). But what makes this bike really stand out is it's fixed wheel! I took this photo outside Bike Booty in Glasgow's West End, the guy there seems to have a mission to convert any bike that comes his way into a fixie. In the background, a beautifully restored Flying Scot.

Peugeot



This very cute Peugeot city bike was parked outside the Transmission members show.

Unknown


A rather tired but handsome old bike that I saw in Glasgow's west end. The badge was so faded that I couldn't read the make.

Conference Bike



This photo has been kindly sent in by Clutha. As far as I know it's a one of a kind, 'Conference Bike' which you, and SIX others, can ride around the Isle of Cumbrae.

Cycletracks

So when it come to cycletracks Glasgow City Council really are peerless. They got it all. Broken glass and locked gates. Parked cars and craterish potholes. They could teach these Danes a thing or two.
