Browsing around and admiring pictures of the Pashley Guv’nor a friend of mine has thought of purchasing on his trip to England led me to the site for Gold Country Cyclery in northern California. I’m glad they’re an eight-hour drive away, or I’d probably spend far too much time drooling over this great looking three-speed.
It’s not quite right for me (I prefer to sit up, and there aren’t enough gears for the hills in this area), but it is a great looking bike; the Roadster Sovereign and the Princess Sovereign are also fine examples of what I’m going to have to start referring to as “Dutch/English”-style bicycles. The cork grips and the white tires are a nice touch, but the brand logo really seals the deal for me — guess I’m just shallow.
