This has been my goto bike for a lot of cross-town runs recently. I've done a few comfort and safety mods to it (with more on the way) that cost me a pretty penny, but they are far more than worth it, having transformed the bike from one that I initially regretted ever buying to one that I look forward to riding every day. And one of the many reasons I like it so much now is that it has that old BMX feel to it that's always endearing.

Unlike joey buzzard , though, I still can't seem to relearn how to jump curbs or bunny hop - which I used to know how to do as a matter of routine back in the early to mid-1980s - either because I'm too old, too fat, or just too stupid (which is the most likely reason, according to my late father - and most people who met me.)
