In the 60's I was a "mod" and proud of it I did have my Lambretta 150 trashed when one evening I left it outside at the Silver Blades ice rink. Rebuilt my scooter there and then on the pavement, jumping up and down on the side panels to get them straight enough to fit back on! In the daytime I worked for a time at BSA (1961 & 1965), building bikes for the "rockers".
I even started a new fashion. As I had little spare cash, keeping my racing cycles in good nick cost me all I had, I used to go out in the town with my racing jerseys on. They were real good quality, better than the cloths in my wardrobe, and that took off like a house on fire. Cycle shops were soon sold out of jerseys, not to the cyclists but to the "mods". At the time that the twist was in swing I found that cycling shoes were ideal for twisting the night away, that type of shoe soon became the fashion too, among the "mods". The type of shoe that I used and became 1967 world champ in are now in a museum, I'm told it looks more like a shrine, at Ruxley Cycles in Kent.
