Not sure who the happy guy with the snazzy bike is. (Pretty sure though that the woman on the porch is my greatgrandmother.) |

| Margaret (front) and Betty on their bikes circa 1940? |
 |
| Tony @ 1983. |
 |
| Brothers line up. Note the dual headlights on that Western Flyer (and the argyle sox). |
 |
| one schwinn, two schwinns, red schwinn, blue schwinn |
 |
| Philip on a "sand crab" at North Myrtle Beach |
 |
| This was my very first bike. |
 |
| Nick's first ride was a Smurf! |
 |
| Not sure why I'm so happy to be holding some else's bike AND wearing a suit. |
 |
| That's a rough looking bike you got there Phil. Must have been a hand me down. Are you diggin' the matching Perry Como's? |
 |
| It might have been Billy's bike, but I had a better crease in my pants. |
 |
| There's something about that 1st set of wheels that brings out the biggest grins. |
 |
Christmas morning 1958, that bike looks a little big for that kid...but I sure was happy. |
 |

| Goose Point 1975. That kid would ride in that back pack all day long. |
 |
| also Goose Point, also 1975 |

| Proper riding attire: argyle sox and a coonskin cap! |

 |
| I'm not sure which one looks more uncertain about this. |
 |
| Good thing he has training wheels 'cause he sure can't reach those pedals yet! |
 |
Working on my "tough guy" look here. Strollers sure were cool in 1955. |
 |
They seem more interested in the size of the stick the dog is carrying than the bikes. |
 |
| When beach cruisers get old. |
 |
| Headed to the coast for a little beach cruisin'. |
