I remember leaving on my bike with a bag lunch at dawn and my friends and I would ride for miles on end in the middle of nowhere. No cell phones. No check-ins. Nothing but our friends and our bikes. IF something went wrong, we knew we'd have to knock on a stranger's door and call for help. We knew to stick together. The only rule was to be home when the street lights came on.

We did that in the 70's. So glad to see it lasted for at leat a decade more.
60's for me. It was a great childhood.
