memories about beach cruisers...

I still remember the first day that I learned to ride a Beach cruisers bicycle liek it was yesterday. My first one was a old green Schwinn Bicycle with Ape Hanger Handlebars and a beach cruiser seat. It was a dark greeen and I always kept a Jack of Diamonds tucked neatly between the spokes.

I have learned to how to ride for a long time, it was fun time. Finally, the eventful day came. The day was shiny and bright and although it was a weekend there were few cars about in the neighborhood. No sonner had my friend said get her a switch than I had jumped on that beach cruisers and was riding like the wind.

Now admittedly I only went two houses up to the corner when I crashed but something miraculous had happened. I crashed and hadn't died.

From that day forward my beach cruiser became my best friend. I rode that beach cruiser through rain, I rode that beach cruiser through rain, I rode that beach curiser in heat and I rode that beach cruiser everytime I heard my name being called...
