I really wanted to share!
One Christmas, I got a trike, red, it was awesome and I loved it much. I recently found a picture of me unwrapping it, and now I know it was a second- or third- or eighth-hand trike. But I loved it.
Then there was the red kid's bike that my brother had, with white molded plastic seat.
Later on, the Huffy Street Dance girl's bike
Then the Huffy Mt. Storm that I saved forever for and purchased at my nearest Wal-Mart which in the day was an hour away. A week later, we had a terrible crash, which you could read about if you search my previous posts. I had that from '92 to '02. (6th grade to college! It didn't get ridden much and it started getting more crappy and was eventually impounded.
Now I have an '03 Diamondback Wildwood Deluxe, extremely pimped out for commuting, and a '07 Trek 1600 WSD, which is my weekend exercise.
I also just acquired a '76 Schwinn Varsity of original components and questionable shape. The top tube has a gentle curve, and none of the Schwinn literature shows that. The curve looks natural, but I need to give it more inspection. I'm trying to decide the best way to overhaul it.
