two things that sprung to mind yesterday
spesh:
i got given a schwinn stingray(didnt know what it was at the time!) by my cousin as he,d just got a mongoose for his birthday
but like others i bought a red burner off the freemans catalogue and within a week pretzalled the back wheel :LolLolLolLol:
my dad bought a pair of anodised blue rimmed wheels from halfords which i had on there 2 weeks and swapped them for gold arayas off an ultra burner,then i swapped them for blue z rims which again i pretzelled by showing how they spring back into shape by jumping on the chainstay!(after the tenth showing they didnt spring back!)
then had the z,s rebuilt and swapped them for yellow skyways................result!
i loved that burner!!!
then swapped it a few years later for a 10 speed raleigh olympus racer which i put "cowhorns" on it and wrecked by jumping off kerbs!!! :Aresehole:

Snap Rom bloke, my first BMX was a 340, blue and yellow with Lesters. Got it for my 12th birthday, July 21st 1981. I remember everything about it, the coaster brake, single bolt gooseneck, the seem welded tubing, the gummys, the square bars, the vinyl snappered pads and vinyl saddle....
My mate could only afford a 310, orange and black with steel rims, god it was a dog......
