>>1126742>Starts as a kid, I always had the plebby mongooses while friends had tricked out Haro's and gt's and they kicked ass>>1126892>Mate when I was a kid 'gooses were the shit! I still remember one of the cool kids asking me "Wow you have a mongoose?".This, I still remember being in 5th grade in the late 90's when one of my friends was raving about the new bmx his parents got him and he kept boasting it was a Mongoose and all the other classmates were like "dayuuum you got a Mongoose?!" Then all of us after school went home, got our bikes, and rode to his house to check out his super slick Mongoose. Mine was a hand me down blue Huffy mtb like everyone else. Huffy and Pacific to elementary schoolers is like the average bike that everyone had if you were a biker. I was too young to know they were shit bikes really. I was too young to know how shitty my 'upgrade' in 6th grade was but I begged my parents for it. The upgrade was a Next Gauntlet 'full suspension mtb' but I thought it was absolutely badass and I showed it off the same way my friend did with his Mongoose and I rode my bike everyday. Until I got t-boned by a car in 7th grade which killed the bike and landed me in the hospital.
