Same here, a 1959 Triumph Tiger Cub purchased from my buddy when he joined the Navy in 1961, the same year we graduated from High School.

My first bike was a Honda 300 Dream =- probably a 1968 or 9. I was about 15 and loved to take the slip ons off and terrorize the neighborhood. Fast forward to a few years ago and found a place in Warwick OK called the Seba Station Motorcycle Museum. A little ex gas station maybe that a guy has filled with a bunch of assorted makes and models of bikes. I was walking around the place and lo and behold a 300 Dream was in there..........looked smaller than I remembered. Its old route 66, stop by if you get the chance. Its called a museum but its a pretty far shot from a real museum but still fun.

1962 Honda C-110, I was 12, the feeling that I got when I went on my first ride down our driveway has never left! Still have it in the stable!
