Just a quick note to mention that there will be a prize (of no great significant value but huge Mojo!) for the best "Bates" frame (Wescliffe, London, or "Brothers") at this years Cirque du Cyclism.
The rules of judging are secret, the judges' (also annomous) decision is final. All you have to do is show up at the Cirque with a Bates frame or Bicycle and make sure as many people as possible see it! Then cross your fingers.
Hopefully it will be an annual award.
