Here's a typical photo designed to hold your attention. See if you

Nope, you're wrong. Those are typical Australian bikes with drivetrain,
brake discs etc. on the opposite side. Everything else in the photo is
perfectly normal.
Yep, that's the change. With the drivetrain on the left side, it
"caught my eye", as the say goes. I didn't know such bicycles
existed. I checked using Google and couldn't find any mention of a
Australian LHD (left hand drive) bicycle.

How were you able to determine from the photo that they were
Australian bicycles?
They're riding on the left and it doesn't look like England...
It looks photoshopped to me.

Flipping the image over horizontally and I see that the writing on the
second rider's jersey looks more understandable.
