Wash your mouth out with soap, as my mom used to say, and don't you dare voice that thought near this thread, young man!
For the love of English 3 speeds...

Seriously, speaking as someone with a couple of Raleigh Sportses, the oldies are still around. You just have to keep an eye out. Blue ladies' Herc near me.


*edit*

That photo of her posted above is from them movie Call Jane (2022) which is set in 1968 so you are not incorrect about the "used to be" part.
