How eighties is this? It’s a bike from my youth. I never had what I’d consider a proper BMX, but I’m sure I had a Raleigh Grifter for a while.

Harry turned up with this on Sunday. The first thing I did was get on it and try to pull some wheelies.

As far as I can tell all the components are original. There’s a little surface rust, particularly on the chromework, but it’s in really good condition considering what it is and its age. The only things missing are the padding on the top tube and handlebars. If you’d like it, it’s for sale.

The New Monkees

Fasten your seat belts. You are about to enter the world of NEW MONKEES, a syndicated series where Rock n’ Roll, high comedy, warm characters and fantasy collide. It’s a show where a simple story can lead somewhere you never expected to go; a world of upbeat, irreverent humor, fast and funny!

No, I didn’t know they’d made a series called The New Monkees either. In 1987 the creators of the original Monkees got together, held 5000 auditions and manufactured a new band/TV show. It lasted 13 episodes.

You can buy the New Monkees cd on Amazon if you want. Or you could get The Very Best of the Monkees, which I’m sure will be superior.
