Re: my grifters

I have a Raleigh Budgie that my daughter used when she was young. I now want to restore it for my grand-daughter but can't get spare tyres/tubes, etc in Edinburgh. Anyone help please????

Re: my grifters

Sorry to hijack the thread and im up for a rollocking by the mods for this , but if you want to see a fine collection of grifters as well as burners , there is an event happening on Bank holiday monday 5th May at Brooklands in Surrey , its actually the Emergency services day but the Grifter forum will be there again and in addition to that there is the museum that holds vintage bikes as well as the classic ones such as , choppers , grifters , tommahawks the list goes on well worth a visit , even if it is to say that you have been on the famous banked track used by Graham Hill , Moss, Fangio ect ect a great day out for all the family

Re: my grifters

They are a cool bike but i didnt have one , but having read your thread why dont you start a forum on the internet given the amount of members that the grifter forum now has it could go large sooner than you think

Aright Mate,

I'm glad to have stumbled over your thread,as you have the same waste of time as me but my passion is the Raleigh Budgie.I to have a garage full with frames,forks,spare wheels,tyres,pedals you name it it's there...

My time is spent in the garage with wire wool cleaning all manor of parts for my latest bike.I have one in the paint shop at the moment and one I have just started to strip.This one i picked up of ebay for £20 and now the prices have doubled.

The problem i have found there seems to be loads of sites for the Raleigh Chopper and the more remebered iconic bikes but not the humble Budgie..
Oh well let me know if you find any sites when your searching around on the net.
