Australia's biggest bicycle museum
So over Christmas I went to Oz to visit. We swung down to the ACT and had a look at "Australia's Largest Bicycle Museum". I was led to believe it was this comprehensive accounting of all things human powered since the penny farthing. Hah! It's in the back room of a bar/social hall. There's about twenty bikes, all of them accompanied by desktop published and hand written histories.
But still, they had some truly elegant and delicious looking rides. If you're ever near Canberra (God knows why), you should drop in and check it out, day or night, 24/7. Highlights: a penny farthing you can mount and an OzMail delivery bike in sweet condition.
