This machine is still available (I think), but it may be sold to a dealer very soon.
I'm a bit surprised there wasn't more interest in it, and I can only guess the Ken Ryall is not a brand that's well known to lfgss, but it certainly was once a well respected marque, not least because Ken himself was quite shrewd at promoting it. A lot of events were won on his frames, and his aim was to get them on the front cover of 'Cycling'. Although it can't be seen on this cover Woody's frame does not have the conventional head badge (as in the Bob Garlinge pic), but the letters KR which were cut from a set of down tube transfers. This was done do the if a picture taken 'head on' were published, the readers would be left in no doubt as to whose frame the rider was on.
Sorry, I've got two pictures from the magazine which I hoped to use to illustrate what I'm saying, but atm I can't get them into the right format to load successfully.
The important message is - if you want this bike at a reasonable price (it's negotiable btw) you need to speak up quickly.
