Late 1960s Raleigh Sprite


Warm again today - over 70 degrees. I took this 1960s Raleigh Sprite out for about an hour this afternoon. It's quite a change of pace from the Model C Hercules. It sure has a lot more "go" to it.

 The bronze green paint really does nicely in the sun - very bright. Raleigh seemed to use different tones of bronze green over the years. This one is a bit more "bronze" than my other green Raleigh.


The "honey"-colored Brooks B66 really goes nicely with the Raleigh bronze green color.
