In 1966 I was only 7-years-old and my means of transportation was a Schwinn bicycle. A couple of years later, I was lucky enough to get a Schwinn "Apple Crate" for my birthday. Banana seat, sissy bar, shocks on front and back and a 5-speed shifter. Cool looking bike, but it was so darn heavy, you could hardly get any kind of wheelie out of it!
