My dad has a low miles, EXCELLENT condition, completely original, fully outfitted 1985 Raleigh Portage... sitting in his garage. He rode it a few times for a couple years, then put it in storage. He did let me take it for a spin last Thanksgiving when I stopped through for a visit. Tires are a little old, but still original with great tread.

Nice bike. Nice touring bike. Very stable. Fits me nicely.

Someday... hopefully he'll get back on it...

Man, those are the bikes I dream of finding-- excellent condition, little used, top of the line classics...
