It’s an odd one. Card on the Booths noticeboard said “Raleigh racing bike frame£30” so I rang, not expecting much .Bloke didn’t know much, was his brothers, went to see it and first thing I noticed was chrome forks and stays, then the sloping 531 transfer. Frame no. Says late Worksop 1979 year but can’t find an exact match in any catalogues. Racy-looking geometry but mudguard eyes. Can only guess a special build.

Maybe she'll not let you go to the shops again, on your own. What'll you do then!

You'll miss a lot if you don't.

Besides, you could always have listened to it on the radio, like I did

Its not the same on the radio, same as rugby isn't the same.

But if you'd listened to it on the radio, you'd have heard about that famed driver Verstamilton.

I grew up without a telly, so am used to having the radio as a port of call for sports. I really do love a good radio commentary, sometimes more so than watching it on TV.

Plus I can multi-task whilst listening to the radio.

I love Jack Nicholls.

He's like Murray Walker, but with a rheostat fitted.

Anyways, time to make a and break out the popcorn and settle back to watch the highlights.

Don't feel crook & just got a non lurgy reading on my LFT, but yesterday I actually pushed the bike up the last 50 ft of a local hill. First time I have had to do that this year. Also had to rest on a few other steep uns yesterday & today. Can't figure it...

I’m under strict instructions that the next surprise bike I get has to be her size.

 

[Reynard]

Right, that's the F1 highlights more or less done and dusted, so I'm off to bed. I has a tired.

Nunnight one and all xxx

I suspect that something has gone terribly wrong with my life. I ate an anchovy at 7:15 am.

 

[PeteXXX]

I'm up.

I'm up.

Anchovy?

Are you sure it's rock? Depending where you are in France it may be molten metal made hard in cooling. Lots of ex battle fields all over France.

I tried it with a magnet , it isn't magnetic so l guess it must be non ferrous ?
