What have you done today with your Austin Seven

What's more it should be on a bow-frame Dutch "Ooma" ( Grandmother) model,28' wheels, 3-speed Sturmey Archer, much used by District Nurses. Basket optional, rear carrier essential.

Here is a proper Dutch 'omafiets' (granny bike) just back from a shopping trip. No gears, no handlebar or front-wheel brakes, and back-pedal rear brakes. Definitely challenging to ride on British roads!
