20 of my popular bikes and Toys of the 70s and 80s
Bikes and toys for me brings back the best memories. I remember the thrill I got when I remembered how to ride my first bike that I got for my 7th birthday. Christmas was always the best. You would unwrap your present to find an action man or an electronic game which always came with a box of chocolates either Milk Tray, Quality street or roses. We would wake up on Christmas unwrap our presents, play with them for hours eating chocolate. The wizard of Oz would then be shown and after we would all have family Christmas dinner followed by a James Bond movie. Birthdays were also a huge thrill blowing out the candles to your cake then unwrapping your action man or whatever toy you got. My first bike which was a blazer a small chopper will always be my favorite present and a memory always treasured. I am now going to go through my top 20 list of bikes and toys from the 70s and 80s.
Enjoy!!
