Here’s a shot taken from outside of the Post Office in Saint Louis Park MN. The Raleigh Bicycle Company really was named after a Street in Nottingham; in turn, I’d like to think that this US street is named after Raleigh bikes. Not sure but 36th Street may be named for the number of spokes in a typical C&V wheel hub, and I hear the U.S. Postal Service itself was named after Lance Armstrong’s bike.
