Very first bike

125 James bitsa ... given free by Walter, an old gentleman i worked with at the Crawford's Burn Inn, just east of Belfast. 

We where the pot washers ...

I crashed 3 times on the way home ... was forbidden to have it by my Mum ...

But, Mr. Dixon heard the one way shouting match and waved me to his house, 3 doors away,  and pointed to his garage ...

He helped me rebuild it into a safe bike to ride (ish ) and his wife Deborah defused my Mum ....

I rode it to school across the fields.

I was 14....
