Raleigh book now out
At last, the Raleigh book is now out. Any bookshop should be able to order it for you. The larger online suppliers already have it. Here’s a link to Amazon’s page: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1892495686
I hope you enjoy the book and please spread the word about it. Many thanks to everybody who took part in this big project.

Dear Tony,
I am presently enjoying reading a library copy of your new Raleigh book, and will be buying my own copy to add to my others of your previous works!
On page 90, you discuss the Raleigh Commando WWII folding cycle…here in New Zealand, about 15 years ago, I acquired one, totally intact, from the estate of a returned serviceman.
I’ve modified it somewhat for modern usage, but have retained all the original parts for the next owner to restore to museum-quality, if so desired.
If you know of anyone who has an interest, feel free to give them my contact details.
Thanks again for researching and writing a yet another valuable and enjoyable history of British cycling.
Cheers,
Jim Berger

P.S. I also own about 15 Moultons of all varieties from Mk. 1 through spaceframes.
Hi Jim,
Thanks very much for your kind words and interesting message. Fascinating to hear that you have another Commando, as I do not know of any other example. Maybe we’ll start flushing a few more out now?
I’m delighted you are enjoying the book. Maybe see you at Bradford-on-Avon some time?
All the best,
Tony
