[Chrystal]

Not sure if this is the right section

What have you owned since a kid? These are mine

First ever trike Triang


Next one Rayleigh Dido


Big boys Bike Rayleigh Rodeo


Hercules Herald (Raleigh made)


Always wanted a Chopper, so put on HBR and a Schwinn type seat! Saved up to buy a Chopper and just before I bought one, I had ago on a Racing Bike. Had to buy one, so fast! Raleigh flyer Ultra violet & Gold (Ithought it was yellow)

Bought one in the exact same colour. It won best of School Bike shed award 1974!

It got stolen in 1992 so replaced it with this, latest version of the Flyer


This also got stolen from Newbury Park Tube Stn. So bought this, Peugeot Ranger


This wasn't good enough, so....Marin bear Valley SE 1994

I have now done a full restoration of this

Had this for 20 years. Then thought I would get a racing bike again Bianchi Via Nirone


I have now added these 1971 Mk1 HBR 5 speed


Mk2 1978 Silver

This is my actual bike, the other pics are from the net. when it stops raining I will get the Mk1, Marin and Bianchi and take decent pictures
