A 1970 “monkey bike”, once belonging to John Lennon and Ringo Starr, fetched almost $75,000 yesterday at a rock n’ roll memorabilia sale in London.  Originally belonging to John, it was given to Ringo when he took ownership of Tittenhurst Park from John.  John bought it back in the day as a fun way to tool around his huge estate.  The bike ended up in the hands of the seller, who was the estate gardener, after the Lennons moved to New York.  Ringo figured it was a nice way to thank him for all the work he had done on the grounds over the years. 

Ringo gives some cool gifts, eh?
