The only one of those that excites me is the World Bicycle Relief bike.
Some of those prices are - to me, as a road cyclist - absurd.
That said, a few of those bikes were just gorgeous

Agreed, nod, wink and aye!, not just because your bike shares a title with the state capital of North Carolina.

Have not been to NC for a few years now. I`ve named the bike the Tardis as it`s British, blue and allows me to travel through space and time.

Yeah, that's pretty twisted logic that they use.

Not a Trent Tourist, by any chance? They were named for the river flowing through Nottingham, where the Raleigh factory used to be - not sure if it still is. I had the Triumph equivalent, the Palm Beach, which was candy apple red and white. Had it 53 years from new and gave it away when we moved down here. Still in daily use around Leicester, I'm told! They don't build them like they used to!
