Totally classic thread. I used to be known as the "Wheelie King of Rancho Bernardo." On my Schwinn Sting Ray with banana seat and coaster brake I could ride no-handed wheelies forever, while spinning the front wheel around for extra effect.

Hmm, when was this? I grew up in RB with my white Greg Hill BMX w/ black mags.

Back in 1978 through 1982 or so, and at the dawn of bmx freestyle. Think it may have been before your time, as I think Greg Hill didn't have his bikes out until I was phasing out of bmx. But it wasn't exactly an official post, just a nickname.

Here was my Skyway at work at Kearny, I think around 82.

I remember trying to be cool one time in front of these girls back in the day. Popped a wheelie and uh oh.... out comes the gooseneck and bars. :shock:

Bike does a cool ghost wheelie while I plant my rear hard on the blacktop! :oops:

What an ego killer.
