"Thrillingly, even the Parisians have taken up cycling. Their rent-a-bike scheme has been a huge success and could be the saving of Boris Johnson, if he promotes it properly in his manifesto to be the London Mayor."
"With the French on board, you know what this means for the bike – ultra-luxurious accoutrements. First, this limited-edition Chanel bike. For £6,000, you can have it in any colour so long as it’s black. Complete with quilted chain-guard and not one but three integral 2.55 bags. Borderline absurd, we know, but it goes on sale in December, and we love it. Join the waiting list."
Only a fashion correspondent could suggest that the French have just discovered cycling.
That should, of course, be The Times. August publication that it is.
