got a 28 inch raleigh oakland .....the wife stole mu lovely dahon off
me...got two 20 inch ikea at the trailer perk
I'm just back, open it up after the winter break. It was very cold. I
did some /P operating in 3 of the contests, 2 in sub zero temperature.
In the first one I got a flat battery and had to haul the genny back
out the boot to re-start the car.
My Raleigh is a hybrid too. I got it over 20 years ago . I used it to
got to work and shops for small items. It's still in good nick but I
think it needs a new chain set. I had to take the back gear off as the
pawls were gummed up and no longer catching. I also put on new
mudguards .
I only use the bike to go to the village shop. The roads down there are
full of mad drivers and blind corners.
