Remember the days when bikes had coloured-tassles hanging from the handle-grips, and a folded-up business card stuck through the brake-blocks could make it sound like it had a motor? These days the designers are giving bike accessories a makeover…
Flute handles for musical cycling…
Leave a trail of soap-bubbles behind you. Each bubble contains one or two tiny wildflower seeds…
Speedblend tyres, which give a shimmering “speed-blur” colour effect as you move…
And the bike-lawnmower, because you can’t have a wildflower meadow without mowing it…
This last one not a commercial product, I suspect.
Funky helmets too. For motorbikes, but they could no-doubt be modified…
Although bicycle helmets are, of course, actively dangerous…
“the largest survey of cycling casualties ever undertaken concluded that helmets did not prevent injury; indeed, increased use correlated with increased risk of death.” — The British Medical Journal.

Love the helmet and the mower cycle, I think I’ve got an old frame and an old mower. Time to get the welder out I think!
