Gorgeous recreation of sleek 1930s Pashley bicycle - Boing Boing Gadgets:

"The Pashley Guv'nor — horrific name aside, apparently chosen by the company to 'signify the renaissance of our great English bicycle heritage' — is a gorgeously sleek recreation of the same company's Path Racer Model from the 1930's... a throwback to the days when the aesthetics of a truly handsome bicycle were just as important to its price as the space-age alloys used in its construction and impossibly intricate matryoshka arrangement of gears.

I love it, but not for the price: perhaps I'm a pleb, but £795 is a hell of a lot of money to spend on a bicycle with only a single speed.
