Not long after this I was perched up in the 2nd story back window of our house shooting my Daisy BB gun “in the proximity” of the nice old lady next door kneeling in her yard working. My sights must have been off bc I hit her in the leg. She jumped up and I tried to cover my tracks.
Minutes later the not so nice owners of that garage were prying BBs out of the wood to show my parents. Dad whalloped me good.
Me outstanding example of law abiding citizen ever since (ahem).
I had a gold stingray just like that one, greatest bike ever for a 12 yr old

cheeks for days!!
Omg my first bike was just like that. I wish I still had it.
Did you make ramps with bricks and boards and jump it? That was our neighborhood sport around 10-11 years old. Some insane jumps and crashes.
Nice a friend could ride on the back and one on the front!
Had one. A bit later in 77 though.
Holy crap. This could be my picture, but would have been 77.
Nice ride! What was it, Huffy? It doesn’t look like my Schwinn.
