That's the suit for the pub when you stagger home almost legless..... :Hahaha:

You can get a brand new shooing suit in the tweed of your choice from Bob Parryat for less money than that ! :Wink:

I assume that includes the Boater and the Bicycle ???

Not sure about the suit, natty but over priced.

More interested in the bike. That is a Dursley Pedersen, Victorian/Edwardian era bike. Supposed to be really comfortable even today. Good examples go for over £5000

And I have to say that, even by bike seat standards, the seat on either of them doesn't look like the most comfortable thing in the world. Can't imagine even Wiggo would get very far up Alpe d'Huez on that.
