Hey! Bicycle content
 

I came across a bicycle song. See

A little country but bicycle content (which is becoming a bit unusual
:-)

Cheers,

It's a bit more than a *little* country! Quite funny mind...

Thanks, John. I heard (or so I recall) that song decades ago, sung
(again IIRC) by Peter Alsop, and have looked for it from time to time since.

the video for Shout To The Top by The Style Council has a racing themed video, which really has very little to do with the song. I'm a big fan of the song and racing, so it works for me.

Here's another with bike content. The Raleigh comes in a bit after 2:15
but it's worth waiting for.

To explain the context: In Ireland and around the world, there are
people who love to get together to play Irish tunes in social
"sessions." There are thousands of jigs, reels, hornpipes, polkas, etc.
that are part of the genre. But to participate, you need to take the
time to learn some tunes and practice them.

Except Irish sessions are plagued by amateur percussionists, people who
think it's fun to bang on things, because hey, you get to play! And you
don't even need to practice! Those who play spoons are the most widely
scorned. They hold two soup spoons in one hand and rapidly whack them,
more or less in time with the music.

And nothing destroys a sweet, slow air like a guy rattling along like a
machine gun. Here are the consequences, at least in one instance:

Hey, I hairnet helmet just like that RALEIGH guy. I like how the one guy is riding a bicycle with suicide brake levers and centrepull brake calipers.

Well, I just thought that a little bicycle content here on this site
might prove to be entertaining :-)
