You do not know what these are? Well - Bicycle stamps collectors are mostly both: philatelists and cyclists. On rainy days, in winter and generally with increasing age the focus shifts more towards philately. They belong to an endangered species with a large surplus of males. Their number is estimated to be 30 to 50 beings worldwide. However, there are no exact figures. Since no organization works to preserve this species, this website wants to give them a home.
