Greetings from Luneburg, Germany

[Hamburg Raleigh]

Good evening,
My name is Martin. Born in Germany in the Black Forest, now living near Luneburg. I signed up here to learn more about bikes and cycling in Britain. While looking for a vintage Peugeot or Mercier road bike that I assumed could make me feel younger than I actually am, I stumbled over a vintage Raleigh Royal in excellent condition. Gathering information on the manufacturer and the model, I found this forum, and lots of helpful information in it. I thought you might find the story and some pictures of my new old bike interesting, so here I am.
Best regards,
Martin

Gutten Morgen Herr Von Raleigh.

We will need pictures of your bikes in order that we can rub our chins thoughtfully and nod sagely. Its the law!
