Do You Remember When You First Learnt to Ride Your Bike?

scott not scot hehe....mine had fat chrome rims...no plastic wheels for me....:)
Oh and i had a mountain bike in the 80's too....raleigh mustang...my dad had a first gen muddy fox courier...then came the marins...konas....s-bikes...orange....custom websters....etc

Yeh i think my dad's was a Raleigh, blue it was, I always remember him stacking it outside a very full pub garden in the summer, big gash in his leg, claret everywhere me shouting very worriedly asking if he was ok, him very embarassed shouting 'Yes I'm fine come on!' whilst scrambling back onto the bike and trying to get away from the 30 people in the pub staring/laughing at him.

I also remember my older brother getting a racer for his 17/18th birthday then getting it nicked from the bike shed a week later, police actually came round! he was gutted never saw it again.

oh and shouting the combination of my lock at the top of my voice to my best mate downstairs so he could borrow my bike, in the middle of the rather dodgy council estate I lived in, not even thinking that someone could think about stealing it.my mum in the distance with her head in her hands..
