Re: So what where you doing in 1974?
Brings back a lot of memories. Right around that time is when I saw the Evel Knievel movie and that got me into loving motorcycle jumps and stunts. I also loved On Any Sunday and still do. This video of those kids doing wheelies while standing and after riding the distance of a few houses, you're pedaling so fast lol. That was the only way I was able to do a wheelie, by standing. I could never do one sitting down. My bike at the time was similar to theirs. I had a Schwinn with the banana seat but I had the handlebars with a crossbar. I also liked having them far away from my body instead of closer. I had an alley next to my house and my friend and I used to build ramps like that. Stack a few bricks and put a board on it. Wow, great memories! Thanks for posting that video Dave.
