^ Ugh! Damn, I had the same outfit "Crockett" is wearing (minus the holster) back in '87. Even a pair of Ray Ban Aviators in gold. What was I thinking?!?
IMO, I think it started earlier with aerobics being popularized in L.A., remember the silly music videos (ie. E.N.J.'s Physical)? Miami Vice was the zenith and it poisoned the minds of a generation.
I'm possibly being nostalgic, but I still prefer some of the bikes with the wild paint schemes (Centurions) over today's graffiti graphics on them Carbon Fiber road bikes. Downright fugly!
