\u00a0
One day a big box arrived at Father Christmas\u2019s house.

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n


He was pleased to get it.
\u00a0
He opened it carefully with one of Mrs. Christmas\u2019s best kitchen knives. She didn\u2019t know he had borrowed it.
\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n


Inside the box there was a bicycle.
\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOut you come, my lovely!\u201d said Father Christmas as he lifted the bicycle out of its box.

He carefully straightened the carbon bars with his special carbon bar straightening tool\u2026

Then he stood proudly in front of the camera with his new bicycle.
\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n


There were some very pretty bits to the bicycle. There was a Rohloff Speed hub\u2026

and a Schmidt hub dynamo.
\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Soon Father Christmas was ready for his first ride.
\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n


So he was heading out into the traffic\u2026
