"When it comes to Eastertide chocolate, the fixed gear cyclist's choice has to be Lindt's 'Chocolate Bunny' range. Fashioned from 100% Swiss chocolate, tailored 'all milky' for the British palate, it comes in three edible sizes: small, medium and greedy. Foil-wrapped in gold and silver, the bunnies are perky and coquettish; naked, they are subdued and dignified, quietly forgiving you the oral carnage wreaked about their person.
But what makes Lindt Bunnies the choice for the fixed gear cyclist? Well, put simply: they're bomb-proof. They're the Phil hubs, the Chris headsets, the Paul cranks of Easter treats. In a recent test, two of LFGSS.com's sweatiest riders went head-to-head and arse-over-tit in an all out collision scenario, carrying 16 medium Lindt bunnies apiece in their Archie's Grobags. The result? Whilst both riders hit the deck, one landing on his bunny-filled bag, the other landing in a heap on top of him with his bike and bag flying everywhere, each sustaining bodily injuries of groan-inducing severity - as well as one rider's chopped risers being rendered mini-moustaches on impact - the bags were opened to reveal that* not a single Lindt Bunny *had been affected by the incident. Where 32 bunnies had stood in packaging, 32 bunnies remained - not one of them having succumbed to "shop soiled" status. Amazing. For the discerning fixed gear rider who wants a chocolate treat that can be stacked on again and again, the Lindt Bunny is, quite simply, FTW."
