I stopped riding about 11 years ago, just started doing the normal going out things at 17ish and lost interest. My last bike was a classic SandM Holmes like the one above.
All my pics are actual photos, will dig them out, digital photo them and get em up when I have a chance

Vert rocks...

I ride with Alex Leach and Billy Stupple sometimes- in the sense that they're part of the same website and come to the same meets- I dont really know them.

I watched Billy Stupple do an old skool drop in on the 14ft vert at corby the other week... thats hardcore

This is my daily driver



Can't do shit on it, but it fits in the boot of my car without even having to put the seats down, and stops me having to pay Bath's ridiculous parking charges!

Not quite as exciting as the others- but I have only been riding on ramps since october.. and the protection is because of knocking myself out, not being able to walk and other stories- as a result of being generally shit and going for everything.

I keep saying Im going to get myself an oldskool bmx, I used to ride them in the early 80s, and had a Redline around 1994 too.

Now, Im praying someone can help me out here, I am desperately trying to track down a copy of an old bmx vid from around '94, called Bacovision 5 - Homosexuals ( )



My brother kindly lent it to someone for me, and Ive never been able to get it back
