Barry isn’t the only two-wheeled character in the series. He’s joined by Max the BSA. Max looks like a right miserable old sod, and I advise Barry to stay away from him:

Ralph the Ariel, who looks like he might be upto something:

Suzie the Scooter:

Roger the Norton, who looks like he’s been around the block and knows a thing or two:

And Colin the AJS who looks very smiley and innocent:

There’s also a sidecar named Humphrey, and a couple of trucks.

If you want to give Barry and his classic friends a bit of a makeover, there are also colouring pages which can be downloaded from the Barry the Bike website free of charge.

There are currently three books available, all priced at £6.99, and they can be ordered online at www.barrythebike.com.
