The stick shift could be hell on the family jewels if you catch my drift. My best friend almost got castrated after he jumped a ramp and landed on it the wrong way

My brother who is 5 years older had the 5 speed stick version in the 70s. I was so jealous, I never did get one as cool.

Hard to go wrong with a bicycle, here’s one I bought for the grandkid. People tell me my son looks like the mailman. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/vmcSbn1q/1-AC33063-71-BB-4-F73-9-BAC-DBEA7992-C509.jpg)

I guess I was born too soon to get to enjoy a bike like that. We were just glad to have a bike that had tires that would hold air for more than a day.

Banana bike! I’ve told it before but my youngest brother was running his down the hill in front of the house trying to see how fast he could go. He hit a rock and with those hi handlebars just slightly over corrected and got into some wobble and it was ugly. It took a while for all the road rash to heal 😳
