Hard to say how many incredible hours I might have spent on that bike. So much fun!!

Happy days! Title: Re: Some memories from the 70/80's Post by: Waz1892 on May 01, 2014, 08:05:42 AM I had a BMX Batavus freestyle. Double flat cross bar!
I was so chuffed when i got it. £120 if i recall, my Grandad had been saving 1p and 2ps since we were born to give to us on our 18th. I pestered so much to get £100 of it beforehand to buy this bike! Great memories. |
