Research and Development

Early Prototype in action







All is proceeding well, preliminary flights are progressing extremely well. The fungus is spreading but is not a cause for concern.


Much is happening at our secret research location. Interstellar bicycle travel is a definite possibility, although Hintsches still keeps receiving unexpected electric shocks and alien fungus like life-forms keep appearing.
All will be revealed sometime in late August somewhere in a field in England.



This morning these sacred artifacts appeared. We believe they are gifts from extra terrestrial life forms to help us with navigation through worm holes.

Bicycle Village Fete at Harbourside

Our first Bicycle Village Fete was fantastically good fun, busy from the moment we opened.
Non-stop fun it was for everyone.

The Wheel of Fortune

Pedal a Toastie
12 volt toasted sandwich maker, and a lot of pedaling
Bicycle Tyre Hoopla
this one is a winner
Pedal Powered Spin Painting
Biggles explains the finer points!
Pedal Powered Scalextric
this was truly like being at Le Mans 24hrs!
and the cycle bunting is truly wonderful and we are still coming across ones we haven't noticed before.
