I invested in a GT 380 as a wedding present to myself in 1975. I couldn't drive then so just had the bike. I fitted some panniers and a top box so as we could travel the 10 miles to Beverley for our weekly shop.
Used to be a very interesting ride back from the supermarket with my missus on the back and panniers and top box loaded to the gunwales. Any slight imperfection in the road used to have the front wheel pawing for the air.
I also had a GT380, saw one last weekend at Mudeford Quay Dorset.
Forgot how tiny they are.
Especially compared with modern bikes, sounded lurvly though.
