A little Italian

My folks rang Friday to say they had found a pile of second hand bikes for sale for £10 each. I like to gather up old bikes for a spit and polish and ebay so they got me two! A Raleigh racer (circa 1980) that someone has done a bad respray on and this little Italian number. Not a make I've heard of and unsure of age but very nicely put together.

I'm trying to save (or make?) money for a trip to Africa in May (and possible long term out there), I have a giant bike I use for road and my MTB so debating three choices regards bikes;

1. Keep the bottechia with a few road ready adaptations, sell my Giant roadie & Raleigh
2. Keep the Raleigh, strip it down paint it pink and go retro, sell the other two.
3. Clean up the Bottechia and Raleigh, sell them and keep the Giant roadie.

Not life or death questions but serious stuff none the less ;)
