Great, great stuff, Rick... many thanks.

And we Raleigh fans will enjoy the footage of the Raleigh Team in its very early days riding Worksop-built Team Pros in the familiar team colours but with yellow peak heads AND the old Carlton-liveried jerseys but with Raleigh instead of Carlton.

I suspect this was the last Raleigh-Dunlop sponsored anything.. by the end of the year they weren't even talking to each other after the great tyre stand-off.
