Rode a Raleigh Competition Racing bike for years. Bought it new in 1977 and literally put thousands of miles on that bike. I maintained it as new, and it never let me down! Don't have a photo of it, but here it is in the 1977 catalogue.

Knowing I could never ride it again with my back injury, I tuned it and sold it about 5 years ago. The young guy I sold it to was a vintage racing bike enthusiast and fell in love when he saw it, so that helped with our parting.

Now, I regularly ride a vintage 6-speed Murray beach cruiser that I found for sale in mint condition at a Salvation Army Family Store priced at $65... on a 50% off everything in the store day, so $32.50.
