Pictures can actually ruin a good story
When I was a kid , we lived on one corner of the block and there was a family that lived on the other corner of the block , their still there actually , well , their mom and dad are anyways
And they had three kids , two girls and a boy , the boy was two years older then me , but we hung out together all the time as kids
Well for years , I always told the story that Craig had a Purple Schwinn Stingray and I had a Blue Schwinn Stingray and how we used to go everywhere on those bikes , Craigs was a 5 speed stick shift and mine was a 3 speed stick shift , and just how cool those old Schwinn Stingray's were , that was the bike everyone owned
or I thought , and I told those stories many times
Then............
A couple years ago , I came across this picture of Craig and I ,
I'm the one on the left , and to my surprise , Craig was the one with the Blue Schwinn Stingray , and mine was the Purple one, but the thing was , the closer I looked , I figured out , mine wasn't even a Schwinn Stingray , and after several hours of investigation , it turned out mine was a Ross Barracuda , , even though the Schwinn Stingray was the main bike in those days , there were several imitations , I remember Sears had their Spyder along with others
So after telling those stories of my old Schwinn Stingray hundreds of time , it turns out , I was completely wrong ,
A couple bad ass biker dudes
