Description
Mrs Armitage sets off for a quiet cycle with her faithful dog, Breakspear, but she just can't help thinking of ways to improve her bicycle.
Before long, she's added three very loud horns, a bucket of water to wash her hands and a seat for Breakspear.
But it's when she finally adds the mast and sail, that Mrs Armitage really runs into trouble... Join her for a bike ride like no other.
Part of the iconic BBC animated series, Quentin Blake's Box of Treasures.
