Almost every neighborhood across the country had a crew, some even had several. A group of kids who became friends based on their simple love for bikes, and the freedom of being able to explore the surrounding areas, while riding their bikes. In my neighborhood, there were a few biking crews, but there was one that really stood out. 

There was a crew that knew how to fix bikes; so everyone in the neighborhood would come to them to get their bikes fixed. Each crew member had bikes that they customized themselves using different parts that they bought from the local bike shop, and spray-painted to give them an even cooler look. Fast forward to our teenage years, a few of them outgrew that phase and most of them graduated from their bike crew.
