Day out on my recently finished 85 Record Sprint...

Y282

Old School Hero
Finally got this completed a few days ago, so pleased it's done (although there's always a few minor things to add). Hadn't ridden one since 1987 so took it down to a place I used to ride my original one.

Lot of nostalgia about super thin tyres, woeful brakes and using toe clips/straps again; it put a huge smile on my face riding this.

A few chats with people remembering them too; seems the Record Sprint is still recognisable to a lot of us of a certain age :D
