Got my first racer in 77.

1976 for me

Old blue Raleigh with chrome sections with the odd alloy part, possibly it was a Record Ace, long gone now

Watched the youtube clip many a time....It's great. Have you watched this one ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cut_sYkNcIM&t=2768s

Spent years trying to work out what mine was. Black with Olympus style decals and centre pull brakes. Loved that bike.
