My first bike was sweet. It had a fake gas tank, star spoked wheels and a big soft bread loaf seat. It was probably the heaviest bike I have ever owned as well!

My first road bikes were cheap 10 speed hand me downs from my older brother and sister. I remember not being able to reach the ground while on the pedals so stopping required a sidewalk curb. Stoplights required room to ride in circles before the intersection until the light turned green.
