Sorry couldn't get a better shot of the bars today, as it had several BSO's leaning against it. !!!


At local car boot a seller was trying to get £200 for this nice original Freddie Grubb !! He also had a nice Sid Mottram Mixte that he wanted £50 for

You get a better class of car booter up your way then, the only bikes I ever see at ours have recently been stolen from the local council estate - by the look of them not the first time of stealing either!

For a nineties bike,it looks classic.
Is it an older bike bought in the early nineties?

No, he said it was bought new; I think it's Dawes never tried to look anything other than classic

This is the bike I rode L'Eroica on in 2011

It's an old Raleigh Professional from about 1974 that I used to race on back in the late 70's

More pics of the bike in various builds here

Any room in the vintage section for some veteran cycles? This is a small selection from today's national veteran cycle rally in NW Leicestershire.

The bike that got me back into cycling after a gap of 20 years! £22 off ebay, and when I picked it up I had to take the front wheel off to get it in the car, and just couldn't believe how light it was! Lovely bike. Rode it for a couple of years, then lent it to two different friends, both of whom loved it. Then sold it on ebay. Think I got fifty or sixty quid for it. Value for money transport or what?

I was there as well. Unfortunately missed them riding back to the Odd House. I filmed a local guy having a little ride on an 'ordinary'. I put my photos on here. https://www.cyclechat.net/threads/market-bosworth-ride.203987/post-4450583
I don't have a YouTube account and can't seem to attach video clip. Is there any way I can upload it?

Raleigh Pioneer Commute that I've spotted a few times (the flowers are distinctive). Derailleur model with no date on the hub that I can see, so I'm not sure if it's vintage but I think it's definitely classic.

Not to this site, I think. You'll need to find some video-hosting site to put it on (goblinrefuge or whatever) and I think most of them make you register for an account because they're awfully scared of hosting porn and want to be able to slap people hard if they try (which some of them will probably enjoy).
