Raleigh RSWs are Shoppers, not MTBs.
Right?
But we took 3 for a ride up the 'hill': )
On these 'mad', but very cool, vintage 3 speed machines.
To climb the Worcestershire Beacon.
For a picnic.
Was an amazing day. A proper 'one off'.
Check the pics below: )
Remember these bicycles are 50 year old, 3 speed Shoppers!
3 together is rare anywhere.
3 on top of the Malvern Beacon is unique.
Peter, Darren & John with our sturdy steeds. We hold this record!; )
We did it.
And we never saw a single MTB.

| We set out from Worcester. That's where we're going. The highest bit between the two chimneys. Pete looking apprehensive! |
 |
| On the way up we are looking down on houses... |
 | |
| 3 little bikes two big smiles. Halfway up rest point. |
 |
| Peter did check the skip before we set off: ) |
 |
| We thought these were after us, but we just lost them... |
 |
| Were you calling the sheep here Pete? ; ) |
 |
| Final resting place on the ascent. We going to the highest point with the two little markers... This is the hardest bit. |
 |
| Pete went for it! |
 |
| Darren was a Hero! Just the last few yards here. |
 |
| Done it: ) |
 |
| My machine here with its original white tyres. The highest RSW in Worcestershire ever! |
 |
| The only pic we got of the three of us, courtesy of a lovely lady passer by. Thank you: ) |
