A beautiful Velorbis Victoria Classic ladies bicycle was used to illustrate “Opinion: Back on the Chain Gang”; an article by John Landrigan on 1st September in The Aucklander, known as the 'voice' of Auckland's everyday people.

Photographed in the article is Pippa Coom with her Velorbis Victoria Classic bicycle. She is a member of Cycle Action Auckland, who “cycles every day on her classic step-through bike imported from Copenhagen - a land where bikes are king” according to author John Landrigan.
