Zowie Keith, thanks for the blast from the past. I probably had that issue 
having quit Scouts about that time. Wasn't cool in high school. It was thru 
Boy's Life that I learned and became with enthralled with 3 speed hub 
gears. I ended up with a JC Higgins from Sears, which was an Austrian made 
Steyr I believe. Let me tell you I was not cool with my Stingray buddies. 
But that bike was a gas. You could go some distance. Went camping on it 
once. Out in the orange groves of Southern California. They were every 
where back then. I remember riding thru smog so thick it would act like fog 
(smoke and fog!) wisping all around you. The hindsight of History makes you 
a wee bit queasy thinking about it, but we didn't know any difference back 
then. The magazine is thick. They expected you to read back then. What a 
concept.
