  1. I thought I'd take the recently restored Raleigh Banana

    simonmason.karoo.netpage470.htm

    on an outing to the village post office (to cash in some postal orders - remember those?) and then
    onto B+Q. Seemed to handle OK on cornering despite dodgy front forks, only bug was a slight
    graunching sound from the chain.

    First hill appears and I thought I'd compare it with my hybrid - until....the chain snapped.
    Luckily I had a 20p piece on me and there was a 'phone box next to the road. Our lass came out to
    pick me up in the car - well, at least there's yet another item the donor bike can provide.

    Sadly, it seems to be going the way of the broom. 6 new handles and 4 new heads :-)
