It's not a modern idea at all. At the Pope's behest, the Church started selling indulgences i.e. forgiveness for various sins, which led Martin Luther (the original German one) to start the Protestant religion in protest. Mind you there weren't any bikes around to be blessed at the time.
‘It’s time to put away your Gore Tex textiles, heated gloves, thermals, over boots and all the other paraphernalia of winter riding and start enjoying some biking weather, hopefully…………..mmmm…….possibly……….mmmm……. anyway the BIKE BLESSING is going ahead again this year and we hope it will be a great start to the ridin’ and rallyin’ season, see ya there.’
