What was your first bicycle?

[Omnipro]

Mine was a single-speed Huffy.

I had a hand-me-down Royal Enfield from my grandfather. It even had a "Made in England" decal riveted to it. This was mid 80s and early 90s in India, so I proudly rode that "imported" bicycle. It was made to last and am hoping it's still being used by someone..

The first thing like a bike I had was a plastic tractor. It's also my earliest memory. I was three years old.

The tractor was a bit like these:
   

The first proper bicycle I can actually remember is my Raleigh Rampar BMX bike circa 1978, similar to this one:
   

I can only ever recall bombing around the place on the Rampar, mostly up and down the canyons of Point Loma in San Diego, California. I must have learned to ride a bike earlier, but I have no memory of learning to ride, only high-speed zooming all over the neighbourhood with my brother, who had an almost identical Rampar.

The first bike that I had was a cheap folding mountain bike given to us by the company that I worked for, unfortunately it got stolen at a bike rack at a nearby supermarket.

This mountain bike took me to alot of adventures both on the road and off the road, pretty amazing since I got it for under 200usd but ended up spending way more on upgrades. Amazing stuff what the decision to try cycling again brings you, a lot of new friends, memories and joy from all the rides you take

My first bike was a little pink tricycle and I remember riding it around the house on my birthday (because it was wintertime). After that, I graduated to my brother's handmedown Schwinn, which I think was a dark purple-blue color. The first time I took the training wheels off, I crashed hard and skinned my knee and it was a long time before I was brave enough to try it again. :-)

My first bicycle was a blue and yellow Huffy. It was a "dirt bike" with all the padding to make it look as if I were going to be involved in all manners of stunts. Of course, the first customization was the handlebar grips. I needed something with a little more style. I added speedometers and lights. I tried to add more electronics with a repurposed hair dryer switch and bottle rocket fireworks launchers. The final upgrades were airless tires. While I never had a flat tire again, these terrible inventions increased something I didn't know about at the time: rolling resistance. Is Huffy even still around?
