Raleigh Wisp Restoration - Part 2

[@blobby273]

in 1986 my Dad brought me home one of these from a farmer that gave it too him as it was just cluttering up his barn . it was in full running order light horn all worked it also had a back box or more of a large triangular shaped bag on the carrier at the back I loved the thing and spent 2 years riding the farm tracks near my home and also some lanes naughty naughty lol .one thing I never knew was you could disengage the drive to use it as a cycle if you ran out of petrol , alas once I was 16 it wasn't cool enough and I moved on it sadly just got bought by someone never to be seen again it also was gold this could be it for all I know , I wish I still had it but we live and learn dont we ,

Great memories! Yes indeed, there is a funny vinyl bag to go on the carrier, alright, I have the original one for this bike too. They are a quirky little thing!

Although, getting to speak French in the workshop sounds classy!
