Looking back out of everything i ever got my favourite was a battered old 50cc dirt bike,

Probably 3rd or 4th hand, hardly a straight panel on it and chunks missing old over but sheesh i did some miles through the local woods on that and spent all my pocket money on petrol :D
and when i wasn't riding i was cleaning it :whoo:

Over to you.
 
At age 14 my first guitar, an acoustic with a pick up and a small amplifier.
That lead me to over 40 years playing semi pro, and so many great times. Best Christmas pressie ever .
Merry xmas everyone:thup:
 
I once got a he-man set. So sword and chest plate etc.....that day was awesome. Also my first mountain bike... A Santana emelle.... 18 SIS gears, bright yellow. Loved it.
 


A Jonnhy seven gun. It fired rockets, bullets, grenades, had a bayonet and a detachable pistol... there were 7 different armaments but I can only remember 5. Circa 1964
 
I wanted a chopper as a kid. My younger brother got a silver ltd edition chopper with rear drum brakes. I was gutted.
following year I wanted an adventure kit with binoculars, camera etc. Me younger brother got it.
 
last year was a good year for me but alas im not a kid anymore so that dosent count ,soo when i was 14 i had a brand spanking shiny new bike .it was a three speed strurmey archer geared raleigh.,bright red and with a saddle bag for the tool kit.
i think it took about three weeks before it had half guard mud guards and cow horn handle bars.
that bike saw me through my paper round years.
