Recycled

Pictured here is Tommy Welsh, who has restored this vintage Raleigh bike at his cycle workshop in Hadston.

“I reckon it’s got to be in the region of 100 years old,” said Tommy. “I think that, because of the type of gear levers on the handlebars. It’s also got 28 inch wheels and a full oil bath for the chain to run in.” The bike has been owned by the same person for 40 years. Tommy said “I told them, mind, I’ll just do a little bit at a time, in between doing other jobs. It’s taken about a year, when you put all the bits together. " I had to sandpaper and paint every spoke. There was no chrome, the frame was completely rusted with a few dints, but it came together ok. The biggest job was getting it down to bare metal before I could build it all back up again.”

And the owner’s verdict? “It’s amazing. I’m very pleased with Tommy’s work. He’s a genius!”
