Favorite childhood bike?

[Catt57]

My first bike was one my dad put together out of several parts bikes. He painted it all yellow and it even had a rear fender. There was no other bike that looked like it (in a good way). I wish I still had it, because there is no way to replace it.

Loved my yellow Schwinn Stingray with a banana seat and gorilla bars.

My first, or at least the first one I can remember, and for sure my first new bike.
1975 Huffy Thunder Road exactly like this one.
Coolest guy in the neighborhood until my buddy got a Mongoose.

I’ve had a few cool bikes. Cooks bros with all the blue anodized goodies was nice. Wish I had them all back. It would be part of my retirement plan!

I had a 1987 Haro FSX with the blue wheels, I traded a Honda 80 dirt bike for it when we moved to town from the country. We also lived in st Louis for a while and all the rave was Hutch bikes, so I got a black hutch gt speed racer with chrome spoke wheels sometime around 1989

Anyone remember PK Rippers.

I had a fat tire POS from Wards. My best friend in town had the Orange Crate Schwinn Stingray. I think I put more miles on it than he did.

I had a Mongoose with yellow pads on it. Ended up giving it to a neighbor kid when I started driving.
