Riding my Motorbike
Thanks for the great memories-those definitely were the glory days for the Pedal Pusher shop in the 80's. Mike-Charlie-John are still around! the Pedal Pusher shop was the definite pulse of the hobby at the time. The other great shop was Recycled Cycle run by Larry McNealy. Long before reproduction decals there was fantastic paintwork by John Weider. He did several bikes on top of running a Schwinn Bike shop. Can you imagine painting the spokes on the motorbike wing decal? John's work was phenomenal! Charlie Churchill was and is still the nicest guy you could know-always helped people get great deals at the shop. Mike is still in the area-doing jewelry I heard. And Gertrude and Henry will forever be remembered fondly by anyone who ever met them. As mentioned previously in this thread-the ever famous Pedal Pusher t-shirts. Those need to be reproduced-maybe someone could get ahold of Mike and get permission. I think I literally wore a dozen to the point of being tattered rags. Thanks Mike for keeping the memory of the Pedal Pusher alive!
