Wasn't much choice but be labelled a rocker or greaser in my youth as I rode bikes and wore a leather jacket. Liked the Who and most of the ones Monty listed (although I'm much younger than him :P), had a rake of British bikes culminating in a rather quick Triton (that's a Norton featherbed frame with Triumph engine to you young un's). Didn't like all the silly fighting that went on but it seemed mandatory for some dippy skinhead gang to attack us if they were outnumbering us at least five to one. Seem to recall that there were "smoothies" as well, these were kids who could borrow daddy's car to drive around impressing the girlies at the weekend. |
