Old School is cool! My lovely old Raleigh DL vintage bicycle

Here is a picture of my lovely old Raleigh DL roadster vintage bicycle.  I picked her up for a steal at a local secondhand store.  The bike is in very good condition for its age! It rides like a dream.  The gearing is most certainly not suited to the hills and mountains of Somerset West!  It is best on a long flat road.  Because of the high gearing it takes a little bit of time and energy to get upto speed.  But once it is going it just cruises along.  I rode it to the skateboard ramp with my kids this weekend.  The young 'hipsters' thought my bike was awesome! A real, classic, singlespeed...  In South Africa these were (and in some areas still are!) the standard issue bicyles for postal workers.  They have very low maintenance and just go, and go, and go!
