Ah vintage bicycles...
brings back many fond memories for me.
Do you remember the days when the bicycle used to be our only form of transportation? But more than transportation, do you remember how important that bike was to you? How it reflected who you were at the time? Those were the days.
Bicycles are part of our culture now, just like they were back then.
Only now, they are known as vintage bicycles and are part of our history.
Let's take a stroll down memory lane and revisit some "vintage bicycle moments.
"
Vintage bicycles remain a sought-after item, many people hang onto those vintage bicycles now and some even restore them.
Nevertheless, there is a huge demand for the vintage bicycle so fortunately, they are here to stay.
I certainly hope so.
