A by gone age

What with fathers day and all yours truly was treated to a book which had 50 great bikes in it. 

Of the 50, I had this one in 1982

this one in 1983 while my big bike was being repaired 

and this one in 1989.

Ultimately I will get one of these

but for now I ride this one, again a bike I wanted when I was 18

and I cannot for the life of me remember what influenced my choice.
