Sam says:- I just noticed on Ebay U.K. there is only one bicycle idem listed using the word Veteran,and over 400 using the work Vintage.Ya'll been Americanized. The the UK motoring world Veteran and Vintage cover different periods. A veteran car was built up to December 1918 and a vintage car was built between 1919 and 1930. I suspect that, originally at least, the same system was used for old bikes. Ray Green, Brighton, England
