Bike Night at the Showroom
Monday saw Bike Night at the Sheffield Showroom. The main feature was Peter Yates’ 1979 coming of age movie Breaking Away. A heart warming tale it also serves as a document of how road bikes and cycling position have changed over three decades. The film was followed by MC Spandex’s amusing critique of fixie culture, and then an extended film about Japanese fixie culture – we retired to the bar to discuss our approach to securing the team prize at the Brompton World Championships.
