My grandmother bought me a super ball out of a machine when I was 4 years old. Played with that for years. I'm 61 and it is within arms reach as I type this. Thanks Mother Osborne........

late 70's mongoose with tuff wheels.
or maybe one of those SST dragsters where you'd pull the rip cord and tear off your fingertip in the gear at the same time. |

Came here to talk about posting pics of my wiener and was beat like a rented mule.

The day I got a marksman slingshot was a turning point. Applied ballistics, and the world became a target-rich environment.

Verti bird, if ya know, ya know. same with above. Original 60's/70s GI joe shit. Original big wheel rip out the seat with hand brake down a steep ass hill. None of that green shit. Schwin Apple or orange crate bike. BB gun fights in the woods, yes, my best bud has a glass eye. Going on 50 years now. List could go on and on, you young punks have no idea the fun we had. Home by dark. |

1972. Exactly like this one. This is a pic of my TV while watching Pawn Stars do American.
Edit: This looks like a rebadged Trail 50, not a real Monkey. No turn signals and hand brakes had threaded bosses for rear view mirrors. Attached File |
