I remember Hollywood Mike Miranda. He wiped out not once but twice on Helltrack.

I had some black bike that said BMX on it we bought from Child World. I thought it was a Huffy but doing searches of Huffy BMX bikes on Google makes me think I was mistaken because none of them look like my bike.

But it was your standard boy's bike, one gear. Took it everywhere.

I had a blast on this thing when I was a kid. Wish I still had it.

next, i got my brother's hand-me-down Junior 10-Speed. the gears stuck and the chain was constantly derailing.

after that, a full size 10-Speed that got stolen while chained to a light pole.

not the greatest luck with bikes, i guess.

This is a tough subject for me because I was not allowed to have a Spider Bike like the other kids.
Man, those things were so cool when they came out, especially if you got a big tall sissy bar in the back and colored tires.
My first bike was an English Racer, which was fine, though I didn't really appreciate it for what it was. Then when I was 6 I got your standard bike from Sears on my birthday. It was red.
About the time I was 10, though, I stumbled on the coolest bike I ever saw, then or since.
A friend was moving overseas and had to leave the bike behind and let me have it.
This thing had an angular frame like a motorcycle, shocks on the front and rear, and was ALL chrome. The whole fucking thing, except for the chain and the seat was chrome.
It had apehangers, a sissy bar and metal pedals which of course were chrome, too.
I don't know the brand and I never saw another one since.
It got stolen....

I got this bike for my Communion:

Ross Barracuda GT. 3 speed. I was the envy of the neighborhood, even with the tassels!

A friend jumped a ramp on one of those. He hit his balls on the shifter so hard, hid dick bled.

Anyone remember seeing this as a kid and immediately thinking, "Hey I can do that!" then you get on your bike and you find out that your uncoordinated ass can't even pull off a bunny hop? Happened to me!

My favorite bike was a beater BMX my dad found and painted to match his 1940 Ford.

I loved that bike

I busted my balls a few times on that shifter! But it was a cool shifter and everyone started getting this kind after I got it. My friend had that red one on the first page, and another friend had the one with the ball shifter and he busted his balls on that one too. Right after these was when the BMX type of bike became popular and everyone called us fags for riding a banana seat with a "sissy bar". But by that point, us older kids were into the ten speeds.
