Scooter-forums.com, Spring 2007 Benny Hill was at number one with 'Ernie - The Fastest Milkman In The West'. It was 1971 and the UK Government was about to impose new legislation restricting 16 year olds to 50cc mopeds. 'Funky Mopeds' is THE definitive work on the resulting frenzy of innovation from motorcycle manufacturers across the globe. In 'Funky Mopeds' Richard Skelton tells the fascinating story, written by and starring the people who were there, of the wonderful machines that were so dear to the hearts of so many spotty 70's teenagers. A celebration of the sports moped, charting the history of a genre unwittingly created by the powers-that-be and killed off by more legislation just five years later. This book re-captures the spirit of happy and carefree times and looks at the bikes that gave freedom and mobility to a whole generation of teenagers. With over 340 color pictures, the book has descriptions of all the sports mopeds, the stories of the people. Packed full of 340 great pictures and firsthand accounts of those notable years, the author, Richard Skelton, has put together a great read, making it a real addition to your book collection. It's not a complete encyclopedia of 1970s mopeds - but then it never set out to become that anyway ... Easy to read, light-hearted and packed full of pictures. Twist & Go. This homage to the transport needs of spotty 70s teenagers is great fun' written with wit and accompanied by some great images and original advertising. Perfect for the biking 'pre-pensioner' whom, even if they didn't own a funky moped back in the day, would certainly have hankered after one. - Grant Ford.
