Housed in the art nouveau Automobile Palace, the National Cycle Museum comprises more than 250 bikes. The exhibits show the progression from clunky boneshakers and towering penny-farthings to bamboo bikes from the 1890s and the vertiginous "Eiffel Tower" of 1899 (used to display billboards), and on to slicker, modern-day versions. It's run with infectious enthusiasm.
