Cycling Choristers


In a previous post
I mentioned having to dodge out of the way of a posse of cycling hymn singers.
This is what they looked like.
But would 'posse' be the right or apt collective term?
You can have:
A band of coyote
An obstinacy of buffalo
A congregation of birds
A plaque of lawyers
A waffle of bloggers
And a . . . . of cycling choristers.

Bicycle Busking

This would be sooo wrong . . . in a Perth context. For one thing, you can't even cycle solo down the car less precincts. ( Would this be 6 on-the-spot fines, or just one?) Of course the unforgivable sin here is playing 'unplugged'. Where are the amps? Where the wee red Honda generator that's so vital for the pan pipes and flutes of even Los Indios?

This was taken on a Sunday morning in Utrecht. Just before I had to dodge out of the way of a posse of cycling hymn singers . . .
