My Ride
This is my first bike in over 20 years. Picked it up today and put 5 miles on it and loved every push of the pedal..

I'm hooked...

very very nice bike. I'm sure someone is going to get on you about not having your pedals and 9 and 3... don't care personally. That is a very nice bike to upgrade to from not riding in over 20 years. I hope it lasts, and you get many miserable miles out of it.

By 9 and 3 I'm referring to your pedals being at the 9'oclock and 3'oclock postions. I'm not sure why people have a thing about it, I was more making a joke.

Never heard of it, but to each his/her own... You were warning me in a joking way of what may come... lol

Wow I like faux lugging. Gives it some real style. I think Raleigh is one of the most stylish mass producers out there.
