Who would've thought that Robin Williams owned a Ron Cooper track bike?? (Please note, I've e-mailed the auction site to make them aware that this lovely machine has nothing to do with the "Cooper Bike Company (est. 2009)" and that they need to provide an accurate reference to Ron. FFS!)
They've corrected that, by the way:

This Cooper is a lugged track bike featuring a rare handmade frame, finished in a striking royal blue. The bike was handmade by the legendary bicycle framebuilder Ron Cooper for Robin Williams.

Well this was a minor revelation. Robin Williams was a bit of a bike nut, and owned (at least) 87 bikes. These are now up for auction for charity, and it's quite a collection.

Besides this, anyone got any favourites?
