Anyone like old Raleighs?

[Grindle]

£75 buys a freshly-serviced one on Gumtree right now.
I've got too many bicycles already, but it's a good buy.
1981 Scorpio sports bike.

I have a real soft spot for 1980’s Raleigh road bikes. Owned a few as a teenager and have fond memories of them. I currently own the bike that as a lad I would’ve been in awe of...a SBDU Panasonic 753 with Super Record.

Used to own a Raleigh Record Sprint road bike, I believe it had Reynolds 501 tubing and Campagnola groupset!
Still have a Raleigh Montage MTB in the shed that has Reynolds 501 tubing and Suntour groupset. Both good bikes in their day!

Was out on my ‘72 MKII Chopper only this afternoon!

Funnily enough I still have my 1971 Chopper in the back of the garage, my oldest possession . Broke my front tooth after going over the handlebars when the gear ‘slipped’ & I face planted the pavement back then !
A couple of years back I purchased an ‘unused’ Raleigh Pioneer Classic c1995 got £100 from local paper. Still had the bobbles on the tyres, which I had to change as perished.
My most used bike, smooth ride & wont get nicked when left outside the shops!

I still have my Raleigh Rapide from, roughly, 1985
It's languishing, unloved, in my garage

Oooooh, yeah!
I have a Raleigh Scorpio, it was my Dad's present for passing his O'Levels.

Pictures please!

ETA: Pics of mine (raceface stickers have now been removed, I was young once)
