It has taken to damn long for them to get into the olympics!!! mountain bikes got in before bmx even.Ralph that bike is worth some money,Jim Melton still sells decals and shirts and pads on ebay and I bet he can tell you all about your frame if you give him the serial.Like most of you old farts I quit riding but got back into it and have several of my old bikes plus these newer ones.All you old bmx nuts post up.
he still races and lots of older pros do still Greg Hill
Harry Leary re classified to amateur a few months back.todays tracks arent anything like the old days.You hardly pedal now and lots of manualing,I am willing to bet the olympic track could possibly be mostly down hill its the new trend.
Dugan Still rides. he rode for S&M bikes for a long time,That is the brand I still ride made in USA rider owned!!! still have my Holmes from 89.Outlaradial how old are you ?
thats cool,I dont ever see myself racing again but wish I had stuck with it.I am glad to see people still racing it really died off when I went into drag racing but rode here and there and now its like pulling teeth riding sometimes lol a buddy got me to put some bikes back together to ride with him and the first night we went riding he drug me 6 miles I fealt used lol.
Damn does all this bring back memories. One of the kids I grew up with(lived about 4 houses down from me) raced for Jacks Bike shop, his name is Chris Torrance. He had so many Trophy's I could not count.
One of the funnest threads to come down the line ina minute! All you 30 something SoCal boys gotta remember Devonshire Downs? Simi? Farnum/ Saticoy? How bout some bikes? Hutch? Champion? Kastan? Free Agent?
That list of bikes right there kinda shows my progression from a younger rider to my late teens!!! What a fuckin ride yall are takin us on! FUCK YEAH!!!!
I have a Hutch Tim Judge frame set that was his I have had it since 86,I have a free agent limo also wish it was the pre serial one I had in 88 and I have a kastan built mosh f&f new in box for sale its a pro and polished with chrome forks.ok so I admit I am a BMX junkie but those years were the happiest in my shit life.
SE is still in business but owned by fuji and for the past few years have been producing OM flyers if you remember him and those they are 26" head down to the lbs and check one out
dammit Gary wish you had that Judge I want another one.Timmy was wanting the one I have of his back since he doesnt have one this one was blue and he was never pictured on it.
I used to race at waterford oaks used my local track id say would be rockford for me raced the national there actually did good there still long as fuck
Shit i remeber i went to south park broke my collar bone on the triple before the pro section
my buddy I grew up and rode with in florida Cory Demberger broke his collarbone at south park too he had to get some nationals in before the grands.They have a big collectors gathering at rockford every year end of june or first of july.
hereis a pic of Mike Mitchell who I ride with now at south park
thats Nate Streiby behind him
I sold most of the stuff off I figured I would never ride again but started buying more when I find deals.I am not sure what the tt length is guessing 19.5 - 20.25 I wiould have to dig it out and un box and un wrap it.I would take 175 for the set,you see the prices of new frames they are like 369 now and no forks.BMX has finally gotten really pricey
Springfield,IL
Columbus, Oh christmas classic
INDY
morristown, Tn
Pittsburg, Pa
Some nbl regionals in ohio and indiana
Wisconsin tracks
had a blast then i built a race car lol
I dont live far from morristown I actually live next to knoxville and we got a pretty good park here,I an not ready for that I am in the girl relearning stage lol the new bikes ride so much different they all have fast steering now.I am going to start riding one of my holmes like a 92-93 model frame something that isnt so twitchy till I get the hang again.
BIG PROPS to anyone still racing!!!
