And on top of that, the creator of only one of the most iconic kid's bikes from the '70s and '80s has died too!:

BBC News - Raleigh Chopper designer Alan Oakley dies from cancer

If you rode a Chopper then you were IT! 10 years old and the coolest dude around!



My big brother had the later version, the Grifter
