Greetings

I'm a 70 y/o hillbilly from WV. I currently have an aluminum Mongoose in need of some help. As a youth, I had a Raleigh Chopper. I miss that bike sorely.

Bikes: A few too many

Welcome Mongooser,
70 years young and still riding a Mongoose, that's all good! You will find a lot of folks here on the forum that share your interests in like bikes.......Get your posts count up and join in the fun!
All the Best, Ben

I wish you still had it too, Choppers rivaled the Stingray in Schwinns lineup.
