Love the old school bikes!!! Redlines, Supergoose, GT's Haro's, Thruster, Skyway, Hutch, Profile..etc,etc,etc,...
I have 2 86 Haro Master's one is just a frame, the other needs wheels, seat post and seat, brakes and the lines. One day I'll build it up aswell.

Here's a pic of me taken about 21 yrs ago.
Remember those days fondly,used to race every Sunday around the Dublin area.Can remember annoying the local shop asking when the copy of the next BMX Action Bike would be in
!!!!!Funnily enough I did a Google search of Andy Ruffell about about 4 weeks ago and all I found was that he is now fat,smokes and is a producer in television!!Regards Micky
