BMX - I Believe I Can Fly
Monday, November 17th, 2008When I was a kid I always wanted a BMX. I asked for one of these two wheeled wonders for every Christmas and every birthday. Unfortunately my family wasn’t particularly well off and I had to settle for a pre owned, black, re painted 5 gear racing bicycle.
Please dont think I was ungrateful because that old black bike practically became my best friend and I loved it but I still looked on in awe at all the other BMX bikes. I did however at that point believe that if I had a BMX that I would be able to fly over the house and garden with it! I had E.T. to thank for that fallacy! Much jumping over houses on BMX bikes in videogames wasnt really the same thing.
