Jimmy is rider #7. Note his left hand on the other's shoulder. I'd love to know what happened next…


1982 Super Cruiser 26

BMX transition bike. Debuted in 1981 as a simple cruiser, it's likely that this six speed is all original spec, introduced in 1982. Note that the sticker reads “Laguna Bicycles” and not “Laguna BMX.”

1985 Mountaineer

The date may be wrong on the bike to the right, as it's rear brakes are mounted under the chainstays. See Jamis comments on this brief U brake fad.
