I had a bike called a Scrambler , a sort of cross between a Chipper and a Chopper. My parents got it by mistake , I wanted a Chopper. All my friends liked it because it was different and I never saw another one anywhere. Must of been about 72/73 ish.

And a fair bit cheaper.


My Chopper cost £33.75 - a fair bit of money back then. In the same condition it would be worth about £500 now. To my everylasting shame and regret, my Mam got a part time job washing up in a restaurant to pay for it.
