View Full Version : My sons first bike!
I got my son the coolest bike I could find,a Jeep with front fork suspension and a rear swing arm mono shock!
He couldn't reach the peddles so I made some home made peddle blocks.
This was his first ride at 21 months.

I can't remember my very first bycicle but i had a Budgie, Tomahawk & Chopper..Naturally came along Motorbikes: BSA's
Choppers were the daftest bike ever. A guaranteed wheelie whenever you set off and your nuts would get wrapped around that gearstick whenever you came off.
I had a Schwinn Stingray with a huge sissybar and ape hangers in Stingray blue.
Some one abandoned it in a moving truck,so my Dad took it for me.
This picture is exactly it except mine had an after market 6 ft. tall sissybar.

Bikes! you lucky people. All I got for Christmas as a kid was a peg and a stick.

Probably got a back-pedal brake.
