 :) Thought oval tubed MK11 Burners were 84 onwards? One of the Raleigh riders is also on an unusual bike,not a Burner,built-in seatclamp.Maybe one of the Reynolds tubed things?

Ive noticed that bike a few times, the all blue expert size bike Im guessing from the wheels. Its got a reynolds badge on it, beard or one of the team raleigh boys will shed some light.

Yep, deffo one for the Raleigh and Goose fans.

Wasn't my favourite for whatever reason, always had me head stuck in the legendary Don Smith book.

Still, one for the collection.
