1965 Elswick


(We did not write the comments which accompany each picture - Vinny)

Bicycle Type: Misc
ELSWICK ~TRADESMANS CYCLE~ STANDING IN GUARDS VAN OF AN OLD SLAMDOOR TRAIN. I HAVE SINCE REPLACED THE PLASTIC SEAT WITH A PROPER BROOKS B66 SADDLE AND ACQUIRED A TRAILER WHICH I HAPPILY CYCLE AROUND WITH UP TO 100LB LOADS. SINGLE SPEED, ROD BRAKES, FITTED WITH 26 X 2 X 1 3/4 INCH ROAD TYRES. IT HAS ALSO BEEN USED TO TAKE 2 CHILDREN IN THE TRAILER AND A PROPER PICNIC BASKET IN FRONT OF THE ELSWICK WHILST MY OTHER HALF USES HER FAVOURITE OLD HUDSON LADIES CYCLE.
