This is for sale on ebay.

I bought a second hand one of these as a 17 yr old paid £25 for it and went into debt for months. It was the first road legal bike I owned and my only form of transport. Used to ride from Middlesbrough to Whitby/Scarborough and back on a weekend and use it for work all week.

Had as much fun on it as the modern thing I have now.

Wonder what the kids in another 35/40 years will be riding.

Little electric pods that you have no control over other than inputting a destination, and they'll only do 25mph, quietly.

Had one of them as well, only bike I have ever owned that could be ridden through snow without dropping it. Never had to leave it at work and walk home. Thats when we had snow in winter.
