| Don't diss them. I had one as my first road ped. Far better than walking and more reliable,if not as fast as a Fizzie!

Well Jamie I'm not sure about that seems like a way of getting about and minimising your contribution to the robbing B4R5T4RD5 that run this country.
Wonder if the missus would swop her gas guzzling two litre Citreon for one.

I've been watching them with interest, although not with a view to buying - I already have three of them in various states of repair! They bring back happy memories 
My first one took me all over the place on just a whiff of fuel and represented FREEDOM and Getting Away From It All to me - and that's what riding a bike still means to me so I will always have a soft spot for Raleigh Runabouts, sweet little things that they are

| First powered two wheeler I ever rode, aged about 12. No silencer and about 4 inches of downpipe. Brilliant but monumentally crap at the same time. Cute little things, nice colour too.
