  1. Can anyone give me an idea where I can find an old fashioned kind of
    bicycle. Something like an old Pashley. You know the kind of thing, three
    speed, nice leather saddle, enclosed chain and nice green of black paint
    job.
    Secondhand preferred but essential

    Would a new Pashley do? http://www.pashley.co.uk/
    Or maybe a more Teutonic equivalent? http://www.fahrradmanufaktur.de/

    Both can be supplied with hub gears (available in 8-speed on the
    Fahrrad!)

    Get one from Pashley. They still make 'em. Just the same as ever.

    There is a German outfit that imports Indian bikes into Europe that
    advertise on e-bay regularly. Can't find them on a quick Google.

  9. Thanks to all for your advice. I have finally settled on an original Dutch
    model.
    The Pashleys are nearly £600 which is a bit steep and more than I paid for
    my car.
    Thanks again

    If you haven't already bought and can travel to Edinburgh, the Bike=20
    Station has a number of traditional Dutch roadsters. I believe the funky=20
    one on show today with rod-operated drum brakes (Linked so each lever=20
    operates both) has already been spoken for, but there is a collection of=20
    similar vehicles in various states of repair. Probably cost for one, ~
