Used to be well into it myself!

Did a few races over here and a few in Switzerland. Moved on to DirtJumping and have now finally settled with a BMX!

Used to ride this...


Off stuff like this!


That was about 6 years ago and my ankle still gives me trouble!!!

started thinking about my bike again the other week.

So ordered a new front wheel for it (my mate bent the last one)
new tyres
some new pedals are here in a box,
and a couple of other bits are too.
Lookin forward to getting back out and seeing if i can still go fast!

never got back into it really after breaking both my arms at the same time just messing about on a 6ft wall of all things! would love to get back into it now though.
had a .243 racing dh hardtail, with boxxer worldcups etc. was a stunning bike, never got on with full sus apart from my mates old intense M1, stunning bike.
