I volunteer at Community Threads Resale Shop in Arlington Heights;  the store has recently received three vintage bicycles as donations:  a men's 1960's vintage Dawes Realmrider; a women's Huffy Regatta; and a men's Raleigh Lancer.  Any one of the three would be a great winter restoration project.  We are hoping to sell each for $65, or the set of three for $150.  If interested, please email me at tszesny@gmail.com.  I have more photos available if desired.

Below are some comments and photos of the Dawes Realmrider:

• Dawe's Realmrider, manufactured in Birmingham England
• 1960's vintage
• Looks to have been garage-stored for many years
• Not sure if it is currently rideable
• Finish on frame appears to be original/unrestored
• Appears to have many original parts - may be useful for parts if not restored
