Summary
Pathe synopsis: A new push-bike - unrecognisable alongside the one we’ve known for half-a-century since the penny farthing was replaced - has made its debut at Pangbourne, Berkshire. This is a streamlined folding model which, like a fairy cycle, fits a tot - or without a spanner - expands to accommodate the six-footer. We see a tycoon take it with him as land transport on a river cruise.
