They have that exact bike (58cm) in the cycle shop under the bridge between Charing X and Embankment for £1800, was dribbling at it on Tuesday trying to figure out how I could justify seeing as the Allez Elite is only 6 weeks old!

The guy ( name witheld ) at Priory Cycles had ( one of ) Robert Millar's 1984 Peugeot Carbon bikes. Full Campag Record & Mavic sprints and tubs. KoM and highest Brit finish.

He wanted £300 for it, but sold it to someone else before I got back with the loot.

But hey, Millar disapeared and rumour has it he is Miss Someone ???

Another piece of history that slipped my fingers was a 1937 Claude Butler Tour de Englettere. First production year of 531. 23lb all up.

It was my Uncle's bike who rode for the RAF. He once rode against Charlie Holland.

The bike's owner was shot down in 1942. His next younger brother ( not my dad ) kept the bike until he retired from his Motorcar repair business, and THREW the bike away

I have six bikes. If stuck with ONE I must say my upgraded Carerra Subway 1 is pretty good allrounder
