Named after Sir Frank Bowden – Raleigh Company founder
In 1887 Bowden was told he had only months to live. Rather than accept his fate, he chose to follow the advice of his doctor, who told him to take up cycling to improve his health. He went to Raleigh Street, where he found 12 men in a small workshop producing three bicycles a week. Bowden then decided to buy the workshop and the Raleigh Company was founded.
