I bought a Viking cycle from Harry Fairbairn in Irvine in 1952.
His shop was in Fullerton Street. At that time Ian Steel was often in the shop. If I remember correctly his sister married Harry.
I,along with 2 friends cycled through the Lake District across to Scarborough and up the East coast to beyond Edinburgh., across to Loch Lomond and back home via Largs. We stayed in Youth Hostels throughout.
