We put a pig in the ground and got some beer on ice cause all our rowdy friends are coming over tonight.
There's a Jam Handy dealer training film of a 3/4 ton '57 Chev pickup climbing Pike's Peak that's well worth watching ... they didn't use to road.
And the minute we finished the water truck would come and wash the street. Sometimes we would get a guy who would turn the water off and we all screamed thanks. Great times to grow up in, LOVED it, miss it.
And then came the English bikes. Mine was a Raleigh with hand brakes that I spent more time trying to get my fathers 10" Craftsman wrench to fit the metric nut and make it tight enough to make the rubber ride the rim not the tire.
