Raleigh Choppers and BMX FTW
I had a blue chopper with a red flag on a pole and spokeys so it made a noise as I went down the road. We also used to put a squashed tin can at the back to makeit sound like motorbike.

Choppers were ace.
I have a scar on my face from where I jumped off one and smacked my face off a kerb.
