This is my faithful Raleigh. Got the frame for free with wrong wheels (they were too big, now she's wearing 700C) and since I smashed my racer it has been my ride in London for quite a while. I got so affectionate to her that I decided to bring her over here (Kaunas-Lithuania) and to get her done properly. Not many proper bicycles over here and the interest of the locals in my old Raleigh made me think that she deserves something better than left overs from other bikes. During the winter I will try to paint it (if I discover how to say powder coating in Lithuanian!) and try to sort out something with the front wheel. I ride it freewheel but it has also a 16 tooth cog on the fixed side, let's see in the future whether I flip the wheel or not.
Sorry, it was snowy when I took most of the pictures not a great contrast on a white bike...
I just updated with a new picture from today, unfortunately random pictures appear instead of my white and blue Raleigh... I like Dominika Chybova up there though. Nice lips.
