The Winkie was a children's tricycle that the Raleigh Bicycle Company made in England from 1950 to 1970. It was a rear chain driven machine with a single speed, the chain running to a solid rear axle, and it was built from welded steel tube with steel wheels. Raleigh sold it with more than the machine itself: a child who received a Winkie was automatically made a member of an owners club called The Circle of Silver Knights, which taught traffic safety and also served as a way of selling more tricycles. The source article is short and states no production figures, prices or model variants, so none are given here.
