rBoTM February 2013 - Nominations Please

I collect Raleigh Team bikes made from Reynolds 753 , and I came across the frame about a year ago on ebay, It cost me £650 in a bad state, someone had painted it blue. I have many another original Team 753s and one from 1983 so i set out to copy it, I might add that I am a paint sprayer / furniture resorer and have my own spray shop so this wasn't that hard to do. I am also friends with a few of the original guys that works at the Raleigh Ilkeston factory and they had some of the original decals from back in the 70s/80s . If you would like to see some of my other Raleigh Team bikes then please have a look on Flickr and type in Henk Lubberding raleigh Team and it will take you to my pictures. There should be a couple of photos of the frame in blue paint..

Thought i would give it a go, here is my 1990 Tommasini Super Prestige. I have owned this from new and covered many a mile on it including some of the famous Alps and Pyrenees, when my legs were a little bit fresher.

hope you enjoy.
