Was my 1977 Velosolex junior racer !

It replaced my beloved lime green Raleigh Chopper (forcibly removed from me by a very large and menacing young gentleman) and rode, by comparison, like there were rocket boosters attached to the chainstays.

It was French blue, of course, and outfitted with all French components: Ideale saddle, Simplex resin derailleures, Nervar crank, Lyotard pedals, AVA stem, Hutchinson tires, etc.
