As many as TEN .. thats TEN different gears.

Changing the subject slightly, the girl at 3:16 is absolutely spiffing. Ding dong!!!

Yeah, and she's about 75 to 80 now!

Scottishdan, I think it's quite unfair of you to lay the blame for this demonstrably inexcusable error at the foot of the cycling folk, they are merely the subjects of the film. Surely responsibility must rest with the film maker, in this case, British Transport Films.

And what's more, the error is repeated in the actual video - right at the beginning. There is no questioning the enthusiasm of these middle England, pipe-smoking, beer-quaffing, archaeology-discussing gentle cycling folk, but all credibility is lost by this most embarrassing grammatical faux pas. I'm ashamed to be British.

Quite right, Scottishdan. I've taken thirty lashes and corrected the error.

I thought 50's Britain could punctuate; I would say that in the title, "Cyclists" should have an apostrophe after the S as it is a plural possessive. I'm black affronted. What what, jolly hockey sticks etc etc

What ho, old bean!! Awfully exciting!

Truly, this is an excellent video worthy of watching. Thanks for sharing.

Rugby? It's no friggin' countryside now, just a crappy industrial town... Oh how times have changed. There was no global warming then. Summers were sunny, Winters were wintry and now we get anything anytime. Ditch your car!!! Better still, crash your car into a few others to get rid of a few at the same time! Check it out, white mudguards, can't get them now though - all silver or black damnit!!
