Bikes: 1966 Dawes Double Blue, 1976 Raleigh Gran Sport, 1975 Raleigh Sprite 27, 1980 Univega Viva Sport, 1971 Gitane Tour de France, 1984 Lotus Classique, 1976 Motobecane Grand Record

I propose that such bikes be designated "beta tourers."

I once owned a 1980 Miyata 610, which I liked but sold (sorry, no photo). I'm now overhauling a Bianchi Randonneur from about 1986 for a friend. It seems to be a pretty good bike, albeit another obvious beta tourer.
