    Just like is some cruddy game show, you have to (actually you dont have to do anything) use your bike geek powers to identify the mystery bike…

    Don't know about the bike but the map board cum floatation device will come in handyfor the Welsh Ride Thing 😛

    Tiger6791 is right (but he spelt SURLY wrong)

    Ute… as if! I am a man of style and grace 😉

    Thats an 11.5 foot long paddle board / map board / cheese board. Handling was curious, but no real problems other than the usual juggernaut turning issues.

    Great way to beat the summer parking rules. The nearest free parking is a long way from the beach, and I can lock this up to the pier railings and hop in the sea.

    I guessed, but only because I'd seen the second photo on Facebook.

    Ute… as if! I am a man of style and grace

    At least the Ute has proper-sized wheels 😉

    Good to see you got one in the end – I was the Mundo-owner talking to you and Ed at Dalby.

    Cargo bikes are ace. I've even used mine as a mobile photograph platform: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5m7e9BguQck&feature=player_embedded

    I thought he'd misspelt "surely"

    I did call up surly to make sure they did not have plans for 29er cargo bike before I splashed out. But 26" with 2.35 crazy bob tyres is pretty big.

    A life changing bike for sure. I feel I can justify my 2.8L V6 when this bike gets used for 95% of my journeys. Its how all the parcels get to the post office.

    It looks ace but isn't about £2k?

    and the Headset Spacer bottle opener?………

    Well £2k. NO need to spend that much.

    The best way to do it is to get a donar MTB, and use that for all the non-frame parts. Then sling me a tad over a grand, I throw tandem gear and brake cables at it, several chains, and other stuff… and you have a complete big dummy.

    But consider how this cost looks when you can do all your local journeys by bike: free parking, no need to visit petrol stations, no queueing. That money will soon be saved.

    And then the other great things:
    Chicks dig it,
    My kids love being dropped off by dummy,
    The dog tolerates being lashed into a storage box on the side,
    Park where ever you want
    Give mates a lift back from the pub.
    Go mega heavy touring with all the luxuries
