    A recline of recumbents; a hurly burly of surlys; a doff of caps; a glute of Brooks. Any advance on those collective terms?

    We actually discussed it at some length on a different forum once, and agreed that it should be a breeze of recumbents, or slightly more facetiously, a squadron of recumbents. I am led to believe that the collective noun for a peleton of DFs or mixed DF/recumbents, is a seethe of bikes. Is there anything in The Rules about collective nouns?

    A dormitory of recumbents? (Could describe either the vehicles or pilots.)
    A 'clatter' sounds like a good term for the multitude of mixed frame-types, abilities and frequencies of maintenance exhibited by the cyclists passing along MMW when I left.

    I think the rules are more concerned with appearances rather than grammar.
