[A young woman with long red braids and a gold circlet, in a white robe patterned with wheels and a dark red cloak, raises one hand toward a hoop lettered PNEU G & J and points with the other hand at a black bicycle. An eagle carrying a chain flies at the center beneath a small banner. A ruined castle stands in the distance. The title fills the upper half in large yellow letters inside a red and green frame.]
