Pushangs have certainly changed…
… since my cycling days.
Who needs a hatchback car for shopping when you have a bike like that.
But since it’s Silly Saturday I wonder whether if you fill the panniers full of heavy things will the bike tip over backwards. In my day the risk was going over the handlebars! How times change;-)
And that leads on to an appropriate saying of the day; bend over backwards.
It's not at all surprising that the origin of the idiom “bend over backwards” is in gymnastics. The term was used as early as 920 AD to compare the athletic act of back bending with an expenditure of effort to ensure that something went as planned.
