New Bike!!!

Just before Christmas I found my beautiful new bike on eBay!

It's a Carlton Courette vintage lovely, hand built with Reynilds tubing, so it's light too. 

The plan is to restore it slowly and get it up and ready for a bit of touring in the summer. 

It's great to ride a bike with gears again, and also to have a slightly more girly bike!  I love that it also has a rack for panniers, it's a real treat to arrive at a destination without a sweaty back!
