Let’s see some late 70’s/early 80’s Cruisers and Spitfires

Wore out three sets of tires already!
Cant really see the seatpost bolt but the nut looks right, just reversed.
Salt Flat Cycles
Finally riding a big boys bike
I’ll take a picture. I figured it should have a schwinn “s” on it.

Look Ma, No Hands!
I rode by there and where my grandparents lived just a few days ago while hanging in San Pedro for a few days.

Cruisin' on my Bluebird
I found this pic on FB from the early 80's in Hermosa Beach, Calif. with a Schwinn Cruiser sporting the full "Grab-On" pads that were popular back in the day for the strand cruising beach crowd! This is where I spent countless hours fishing from the pier, roller skating, and cruising the strand on my bikes back in the day!
Awesome. I grew up a couple blocks away on 8th. What a great time.

Yes it was. I spent the better part of may late teens and early 20's in Hermosa Beach in the late 70's and 80's. I moved out of Calif. in 2002, and went back for the first time in 2019. Things have changed quite a bit since all the money moved in! I am hoping to make a trip back out there some time soon since Covid seems to be easing up out that way.

I found another old pic from that same era of what looks to be a Cruiser?
