Got legs? Got $25? Got a drink driving conviction? Got a date with a hippie? Got a lunch meeting with David Byrne? Got a fat bum? Got a heist planned in a loading zone?

Then call The Humble Vintage. They'll rent you a bike, AND it won't be ugly. Local bon vivant Matt Hurst has been sourcing vintage bikes from around the traps for months now - restoring them, naming them, hand-weaving baskets for them, singing them to sleep, wishing he could nail riding a bike with one hand while holding another bike with the other.

And all because Melbourne and its visitors need a faster, cheaper, better-looking way to get around. So, give him a call. He's probably just around the corner, riding a pretty pink girl bike and attracting jealous looks because his helmet matches the frame.
