would anyone be interested?

you need, high resolution photo's of the side-on front angle,rear angle and 2/3 detail shots,
and your bike has to be original,restored,NOS,era correct etc,

basically it needs to be fooking good........ :-X

Hoffman Condor
Hoffman Big Daddy
Hoffman Evel Knievel
Standard Sta 500

i reckon the midschool section would be better represented with riders, not carpet queens.

if you are going to go all era correct, nos, minty, perfect, blah blah blah you might as well just put them in with the other "old bmxes that never get ridden"

Alex's HAF would be a good addition to that list though.

my apologies JT i should have been clearer, when i said "original" i was referring to the well ridden survivor bikes, as long as theyre decent builds and representative of the mid school time frame,

alexs haf definitely deserves to be in there, several others of his too, and DEFO the mad dog,
