    Cracking less for the message and more for the hilarious song, great selection of retro bikes, amazing selection of normal people using said bikes, and also the mental looking stuff they're wearing!
    Also bonus for the token ethnic minority. You had it covered. Well done 1970.

    So who remembers this being aired **asked cheekily**

    Chopper, 20, Bickerton? There might be a kid's Moulton too.

    I've got a hat like the Bickerton guy but not in white obviously.

    I posted this one recently - I remember it clearly, and there was another asking drivers to give cyclists room.

    Ah, nostalgia ain't what it used to be...

    I got one in '89/'90 and they weren't that common then.

    UK made Centurian. I think it's still in my dad's garage.

    Back in the 70s a friend had a tumble and was concussed, his mum made him wear a weird thing similar to this:-

    Looks really effective...

    The classic performance cyclist's "banana hat".

    I was given one of those but never wore it. Shame I don't still have it!
