Cranking up the way-back machine...
1. Sears bike with 16" wheels
2. Junkyard build bike with 20" wheels (stingrays style)
3. Old Schwinn Continental my brother gave me (too big)
4. Murray Spectra 10-speed with 24" wheels (stolen from back yard)
5. Huffy 3-speed
5-1/2 Got my Murray 10-speed back. This is about when I discovered Bicycling magazine and the world of cycling, and bought a Takara.
Does the fact that I remember all this illustrate a bicycle issue in my life? "Hello, my name is Mark and I'm a bike-aholic. I haven't bought a bike in two months"
