    Aye, the white single is nice. Ditto the others. The John Player one is foul.

    Stunning I also like the black --- The Raleigh Record Sprint brings back many pleasant memories superb bike I owned one in the eighties and wish now I'd never sold it. I had a Raleigh Scorpio before that then upgraded.

    Now it's a Giant TCR 3 Advanced ! and a Thron XTC tourer

    After a winter/spring of tumbles for a reason or another (ice, suicidal cats etc... ) I've grown a bit skeptic about limited editions or stupidly expensive bikes/components.

    You are going to fall, it's not an if but a when... do you want to dent/scratch one of these? Alternatively, you can buy it for the pleasure of looking at it and riding it on very special occasions, but it's not my thing, really... I don't want ot ride worrying about the bike

    Already got one! :P

    Prefer my colour scheme 8)
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.
