CorporalPunishment Posted 22 December , 2020 Share Posted 22 December , 2020 It certainly does not look like the usual military issue bicycle. Drop handlebars, raised saddle, blimey!!. Pete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Pete very astutely pointed out, dropped handlebars and raised saddle are unusual for a military cyclist.
