He said he had just finished restoring a bicycle that belonged to my cousin Cherie.
He had retrieved it from a loft in a shed that had to be torn down after a flood a few years ago.
Cherie said she believed the bike dated back to around 1949.
When she (who just celebrated another birthday) and I were 9 years old!
Larry said everything on he bike was original except for the tires and that it now rode as good as new.
However, that was when bikes were bikes and he said at 52-plus pounds it was really only good for riding downhill!
And here's the real treat for me - a photo of Cherie and her bike along with my only sibling, my brother Wayne, who will turn 85 in less than a week!
