I loved my Kienevil bike, i also had the rocket, must have had about 5 knuckle skin graffs using them though. :lol::lol:
Plus we were just talkin about our old bmx's, had 1 27 year ago, me and a mate got the same for crimbo, mine was chrome with black mag wheels and his was blue with yellow mag wheels, the rear brake worked when you back pedalled. Had it after my Grifter packed up. :lol:

Always remember my Tonka toys too, think i was about 6 then, we used to ride them down big hills, unbreakable.

Got my youngest lad a lunchbox for his 5th birthday last March. He loves it! They are good fun :D
 
My BMX was a Piranha. don't know a lot about the brand but I thought it was good! Before that I had a cool (well I thought it was!) little green bike with front suspension - looked a bit like a mx bike! Cant remember what it was called tho.
 
Bikes were cool when they had banana seats, and we'd clip hockey cards or plastic to the front forks so they'd clack in the spokes to sound like a motorcycle
 
This was one of 15 locos I had in my train set.
Price is still low by today's weird collector's rates !!

This one I had as well, and the same model cost perhaps £10 back then !!!

The slot car racing track I had was Champion, but I cannot find any examples on Fleabay.
