When I was in elementary school, my grandpa bought me a secondhand bike from a swap meet to keep at their house when I came to visit. I remember him saying, “I like that it has an American Flag paint job.”
I rode the wheels off that thing, and when it finally went to the garbage dump, I kept the handgrips and have hung on to them for nearly 40yrs.
This weekend, I found the exact same bike at the Wright County Swapper’s Meet and returned the handgrips to the bike!
Have a safe Memorial Day Weekend.
