"Kassimo, you can still get Choppers, they were put back into production a couple of years back due to popular demand, about £200 I think, but the`ve moved the gears to the handlebars which spoils it in my opinion."
You are right there fella. The old chunky handle (red if I am not mistaken?) was cool! LOL.

"The first bike i had was a girl called Viv" "the first bike her name was Alison"
I was wondering when THAT would come into it! | |

| What was the first bicycle you rode? Posted: 2/24/2007 6:56:35 AM | | Mine was a green 3 wheeler that had a box on the back that you could put boy like things, such as Rocks n Boulders . I remember it never had any innertubes so my brother cut up some foam and stuffed that inside the tyres !... aye, we wos reet poor int those days. | |

| What was the first bicycle you rode? Posted: 2/24/2007 8:23:50 AM | | I can't remember the first bike I learnt to ride, but I used to have a chopper when I was about 8, it was purple. Best bike I've ever had, and it used to take some punishment the amount of times I came off it because I was trying to pull a wheely. | |

| What was the first bicycle you rode? Posted: 2/24/2007 8:37:32 AM | I can't remember what make it was (soooooo long ago), but it was pink and had pink and white stabilisers. I can remember the first time without the stabilisers, pedalling down the road as fast as possible with my dad holding on to the back then letting go. I was doing fine til I realised that I was on my own, at which point I promptly fell off. I wrecked it in the end because I always dropped it on its side and I bent the pedals out of shape. | |

| What was the first bicycle you rode? Posted: 2/24/2007 10:29:55 AM | Mine was a red 3 wheeler with wooden thick block pedals, I was 3 when I had that.
Then I learned to ride without stabilisers and had a girl version of the chopper, think it was called a bluebird or something like that, I was 4 when I had that. | |

I yearned for the heavy grifter bomb proof and stuck in third gear. Probably what most BMX bikes were based onto begin but just far far lighter.  | |

| What was the first bicycle you rode? Posted: 2/24/2007 2:15:26 PM | mine? a tour de france racer a mustardy yellow 12 gear count them 12 gears? wow i was in heaven till boxing day when the wheel nuts my stepdad forgot to fasten up came loose and caused the gears to get mashed in the spokes
and by the way the manufactors of the old chooper had to stop making it because in hospitals it was known as "the immasculator" if u hit summat head on you flew forward and removed your happy tackle on the gearstick thats why now its been released again it doesnt have the gears there anymore (thank you health an safety peoples) | |

| What was the first bicycle you rode? Posted: 2/24/2007 4:08:06 PM | Her name was Sarah and all i had to do in return was her maths homework and buy her 10 Lambert and Butler on the way in. I know for a fact that my mate Kev was on Geography and Chocolate detail. I never questioned it though cos she gave good head and Kev used to get my copy of 'Eagle' whilst he was pocketing the Flakes.

I can't reember my first bike, but it did have stabalisers!
I remember getting a 20" wheel one from Santa one year, ( cough all those who don't believe, I do, brings me somat each year, a nice bloke he is ) it was ace, got about all over on it. That was the days when there were cars on the roads and it was dangerous, not like it is now, cars on the roads and TOO DANGEROUS.
Let the poor little fekers out and have some fun, OK the odd one may get killed but they will have lived, ooo you might get hurt, you can't do that, they live longer but it seems like a bleeding long time. | |
