Laugh or cry
I’m not quite sure what to do while reading about the £6,000 Chanel limited bicycle.
But it does make me feel better about planning to splash out on a flash new bicycle, which will cost a LOT less than that.
And mine will NOT have a quilted chain cover. (Which will presumably mean that you can’t go out if it is raining or muddy…. although I suppose you are only ever meant to casually lean it in the conservatory – not to actually ride it.)



Might as well laugh–Chanel reinvents the Raleigh Tourist! let’s hope it has brake shoes as hard as the old John Bull black rubber ones that “stop you never, but last forever.”

I don’t want a cycle that expensive, but I do think there should some point to the expense. When it just costs a ludicrous amount of money for the sake of costing a ludicrous amount of money, I just think it’s disgusting.

There are two ways to make a fortune. 1. take a little bit of money from a lot of poor people. 2. Take a lot of money from a few idiot rich people who got their money from poor people in the first place.
