Cool! First bike I ever owned was a Raleigh 3-speed. My pop bought it for me used at a garage sale. I took apart and put it back together -- dad insisted we kids knew how to repair our own bikes. Took me the whole summer but I managed to get it working and there was only a couple of small parts left over. :-D Rode the hell out of it then traded it for a 3-speed Scout which I also took apart, painted dune buggy purple and rebuilt. I loved that bike. Pretty sure it's still in my parents' summer house garage. One of these days, I'm gonna go get it.
