echo beach Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Went from a Gresham Flyer 3 wheeler as a youngster to an Elswick Hopper between 8 and 13 and finally a second hand Langsett Racer for my 14th birthday. That lasted me until I was 17 and I passed my driving test. echo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
