This miniature cyclist from the Belgian brand Bernard & Eddy wears a yellow jersey with the Belgian flag. He lies flat on the bars, at full sprint. At 54 millimetres he is small enough to work as decoration on a bookshelf or windowsill. He is cast in a zinc alloy and painted by hand, and his weight keeps him standing wherever you set him down. An ideal gift for anyone who loves cycling.
The Sprinter
This is the Sprinter: bent low over the bars with his head down, giving everything he has in the last two hundred metres of the race. Of the five riding positions the Bernard & Eddy riders come in, this is the fastest — and the mirror image of the Winner, who throws an arm up a few seconds later. Put the two together and you have the finale of a flat stage.
The yellow jersey with the Belgian flag
The brand itself calls this rider the champion of Belgium. It is the third Belgian jersey in the collection, alongside the sky blue national jersey and the champion's jersey in black, yellow and red. Anyone collecting Belgium will not get far with just one figurine.
Lucien
Every cyclist by Bernard & Eddy carries a first name. Do you know who this one is? Lucien refers to Lucien Van Impe, who won the Tour de France in 1976 and took the polka dot jersey six times. A climber, then, on a sprinter's figurine — but in Belgium nobody needs to ask who Lucien is.

One rider is a beginning, not an end
Put Lucien next to Eddy in sky blue and Tom in the tricolour: three Belgian jerseys side by side. Or have him sprint against Peter in green. The more riders, the more it starts to look like a real bike race.
About Bernard & Eddy
Miniature riders first appeared in the 1930s, when the organisers of the Tour de France wanted to put the national teams in the spotlight with a publicity caravan. They were largely forgotten by the start of this century, until Bernard & Eddy brought the tradition back. There are no sponsors or logos on these riders, only countries and symbolic jerseys. “Long live the flags”, as the brand puts it.
