Rode my Schwinn Stingray everywhere without a Bike Helmet.
Oh the horrors.
LOL, I remember cutting up a beer can to shim those handlebars because they were loose and the stupid nut wouldn’t tighten down any more, then riding down Kalyann Hill in Subic Bay at top speed with two friends only to have the handlebars fold up on me, and I went over the front onto the asphalt and tore myself all to hell.
Problem was, I thought it was fixed. They seemed sturdy...and I assumed I was back to normal. But when I stood up in the pedals to pedal faster and bore down on those handlebars for leverage as I tried to be the fastest down the hill, my cheesy shim gave way and there I went!
