Pennine and Dawes for sale:
First off the Pennine, I got it for £270 on ebay on a whim, went all the way to Hampshire to pick it up then remembered I already have too many bikes... so up for sale again
It's a rare beauty in first rate condition with some nice parts:

Recently re-enammelled 531 frame and forks, 55cm (ctc) top tube, 56 cm seat tube (ctt)
Cyclocross specific (undrilled fork crown, no eyelets), Campagnolo dropouts. 27.2 seatpost.
Cinelli Gira d'Italia bars and Cinelli 1A stem
Dia-Compe levers with Dia-Compe NGC 982 cantilevers, Dia Compe blocks.
SR Royal cranks with SR Royal LA 5 rings, Sr pedals.
Shimano 105 hubs, 7 speed block, 36/36 spokes, Mavic Open 20 UB/Rigida rims, Vittoria Georgia tyres.
Shimano Crane rear mech (Dura Ace precursor), Campagnolo front.
Simplex retrofriction levers.
Shimano 600 27.2 seatpost, Selle Royal Lookin saddle
Sachs chain (not pictured)
Paint in 9.8 out of 10 condition, the components are all just off-new excellent condition, 982 brakes pretty rare and sought after (look 'em up on velobase) but the rear are not a perfect fit on the rim, my guess is that they are designed for wider-apart cantilever studs. Brake cables are too short also. With the big chainring it's more set out for road use but fit a smaller ring and some knobbly tyres and you could go off road with it.
Can also supply matching lumo-green avocet cycle computer, pump and bling gold elite bottle cage that came with the bike.
I'm looking for **£No longer for sale ** supplied with great condition SR quill pedals (bike didn't come with any).
Next up is my trusty Dawes Galaxy touring F&F from about 1986 or 87

Reynolds 531 Super Tourist frame and forks, 59cm top tube (ctc), 58cm seat tube (ctt), cantilever braze-ons, full front and rear rack and mudguard braze-ons, 100 x 126 spacing. Takes 27.2 seatpost.
Included:
Hatta Swan chrome headset
Shimano 600 triple chainset and bb
front and rear cable hangers, seat post binder bolt, bottle cage.
Good general condition, numerous paint chips but the blue still looks pretty good in daylight. Headset and bottom bracket nice and smooth, lots of life left in the chainrings. The frame is straight and true but has the tiniest of dings on the downtube that I've just noticed (pictured), we're talking minescule.
The decals were a bit naff and I took one side off (just stickers), but didn't get round to doing the other side.
£sold
Camden or possibly Oval pick-up only please
