Thanks for the photo Phil. At one stage in my life I spent a lot of time gazing into shop windows like that. Priory Cycles had two shops that had to be checked out a couple of times a week for their displays of such beauties as Bianchi with the crackled paint finish.
Always bought my bits and pieces from Mosley Cycles, just round the corner from Ombersley Rd and had my alloy rims trued pretty often. Can't remember the blokes name but called on him as a rep for the finance company I worked for and recalled old days. This was prior to 1961 when I came to Oz.
In reply to your question oldbrit,my cycling interests have not been kept up but I do have a made in China Schwinn mountain type machine I use to do a bit of shopping and the such like.
Cheers Tim
