Are you feeling blue? Take a couple of minutes out of your day and watch this delightful little film from Melbourne's Mottainai Cycles for a quick pick-me-up.

Posted back in 2015, The Art of Bicycle Restoration: Mottainai Cycles records the restoration of a lovely vintage steel Colnago. Interspersed with a bit of street art by the bike's new owner and set to a very catchy tune, this video is guaranteed to lift your spirits at least a little bit. Seriously, watch it. Thank us later.
