I saw something earlier on social media from Dave to say that he had donated the bike to a local museum, who then lent it out to other museums across Europe.

Although I now can’t find his post, it seemed he wasn’t very happy to see it up for sale.

More info on the story, and a link to the crowdfunder to get the bike back to Dave.
