hi from the south coast - 2 x SE cruisers

[duff]

hi,
time to say hello
'thought it'd be the right time to get back to messing with bmx...
i had an Ultra Burner BITD, then in the early 90s a Diamond Back Harry Leary with Skyways followed in the mid 90s with a Heavy Tools Stinger.
the Stinger is still around, my step son rides it to school...
it'll get back to its former glory one day...

anyway, i'm on with an SE Racing OM Flyer:


and an Se Racing Floval Flyer:


this place looks great, so i'll be snooping around and hopefully contributing in some form or other...

cheers!

Wasssup Welcome to this here int'net site where all us gereatrics gather to talk, trade, sell and buy goodies from our pasts 

[duff]

cheers for the warm welcome fellas, i will certainly be taking my time!

is this place mostly populated by oldies then? what's the average age of people on here? - mid 30s???
(i can see 40...)

i've been snooping over on bmxtalk too, buying bits more than contributing to the forum.
seems like more of a racers forum though... theres a few helpful souls too - especially dingobmxer

[duff]

woah, been looking around here - pretty crazy!!!
guess i'm about average age here, but don't have as many bikes as some of you

liking the red om flyer. 

is it factory or custom? what year?

[southern andy]

Welcome, where on the South coast are you ?

liking the red om flyer.

Hey BMX1973, thanks  !!
i think it's an 07 or 08 bike.
it came to me pretty standard - lots of gold, yellow and chrome, oh and some massive 2.5 tyres... yeah 'old skool', but not my style.
i got black stickers made up and now the only standard stuff is the frame, forks, seat post, wheels and crank.
the wheels will be going asap!

i'll get some more pics sorted soon and post in 'ME & MY BIKES' 

Welcome, where on the South coast are you ?

Hi Southern Andy!
im in Hove, next to brighton.
where are you ?

[Munnyella]

Welcome along Mate.

BMX talk is more racey, Dingo spends a great deal of time in here too, toppermost bloke, on his hols I believe.

You will find plent of advice, ribbing, bargains and banter here, some of it BMX related.

I would say the majority of regulars are late 30s-early 40s, all of them going on 13!!!

Sit back and enjoy, your missus (if you have one) will probably notice you not replying to her questions in a month or two!!!

my missiz is worse than me when it comes to not answering questions...!
although she was havin a dig at me about the floval earlier, she wants it finished so she can ride it.

@dingo: yep, those wheels are spot-on! thanks! i've got the Floval built up now, i just need to get some new pics taken and i'll get posting.

@Gatters: howdy! - i sold some old bits and bobs to to someone your way five or six years ago, 'said he was into choppers and stuff too - sound familiar?

@rick1970: cheers from a northerner living down south

latest pics of the 2 cruisers:

26inch OM Flyer -






the OM just needs the black, Ditch Witch rims building up and stickin on, but i'm skint now after building the Floval below:

24inch Floval Flyer -






i can't decide whether to get stickers on the Floval... i have some gloss black LANDING GEAR stickers left over from the OM...
or maybe a white sticker set would be good... i like the stealth of it though... and i need to get a black Profile chainring.
