Are those wheels big enough to be 700c? otherwise I call shop

650c. No photoshop. Details of the build here... http://www.kirkleebicycles.com/photo_gallery/ (t0p left: "custom 650"). Just a case of too much money and not much sense.

No, the effect is nicely balanced by the laces on the running shoes.
At last year's Canberra Junior Tour one of the Mum's threw a mega-hissy fit (whilst child produced much wailing and gnashing of teeth) when the Commissaire instructed her that she (daughter, not Mum) was not allowed to use an aero helmet in the TT Stage of the U-13's. It was disturbingly hilarious to watch.
Shite - When I was 12, I thought Aero's were something Injun's fired with their bows...actually, I still do.

Are the aero bars still available from the supermarket?
