Bicycles

You ought to see all the bicycles we have just between the 3 houses right here. The yards are covered with them. All the kids have a bike, even the little 4 year old. They have so much fun riding in our cul de sac because it is safe. There is only the traffic from our 3 homes and we all watch out carefully for the kids. I had so much fun on my bike as a child, I can surely appreciate all the fun they are having.

Bicycles

I remember my first bicycle. I got my first paper route when I was 11 years old. My brother was 8 years old. We walked many miles along the west side of our small town of about 7,000 people, delivering papers. Our company then started a program where we could put $1 a week for 40 weeks into a savings and receive a new Schwin bicycle. What a wonderful day that was when that bicycle arrived. It made delivering papers so much easier.
