Times were tough back then Glas.
The parcel from England was always welcome; and you’d be the lucky one if you were there when it was opened.

Her cousin was yours too .

[Fagan_ODowd]

That’s true in fact.

Ours were from the Yanks, I had the first hoodie I had ever seen in real life, an atari also arrived in the early 80s, it was a huge upgrade on that yoke (supersportik??) that had pong, our house was very popular among the local youth.

I got a Triumph 20 from the cousin in England. Super bike.

[backinatracksuit]

A bit before my time, by the eighties the triumph were considered girls bikes, fine sturdy yokes though, well made. We were a raleigh house, had the boxer, strika, grifter, chopper over the years.

The Chopper was a proper heavy bike. I’d love to see some of the Mamils here like @Locke, @balbec and @flattythehurdler with their carbon frames try to push one up a hill. I’d say they’d be gasping. Children of the past were tough little hoors

I was just think the same about the Grifter as well. I remember having to carry that bike up steps at the train station. Your back would be broke lifting it and because the gap between the crossbar and frame is small you couldn’t put it on your shoulder you had to lift the bleedin thing.
