John has an intimidating presence! I'd move off too if I was in a group of 10 construction workers, and John walked up and smiled!!! Dam!!!

BTW Steve, I reckon I bought my Apollo 10speed in 1971 or 1972 in Lethbridge with money from delivering flyers. Seems to me I paid $90 or $100. Later in 1973 I got my first hourly part time job in that same bicycle shop. $1.10/hr I seem to recall. Bert&Macs Cycle, Canada’s oldest Suzuki dealer as well. They also sold CanAms and Skidoos as well as hockey equipment.

Very cool! I bought my Apollo Sport Ten in 1976, from White Rock Bicycle Shop, just south of 16th avenue on Johnston, just down the hill on the right. $127. It's near mint even after my crash last spring. Even has the original seat. Same model as this pic, mine id light blue:

Also have this bike:

Also a 1964 Raleigh 5 speed Brooks.
And my trusty 1990 Marin Bear Valley.

Yup same Apollo as mine. I ditched the fenders. Mine was a fine metallic mauve colour. It got stolen from school one day in winter. I followed the tracks in the snow and found it in a lane quite a ways from school. Do damage. Luckily there was a inch of fresh snow.

I am looking for some reading material to get me through the winter.
If anyone has old issues of vintage bike magazines to pass along please bring a few to Wednesday coffee.
Thanks a lot
