I've decided to dig out my dp. The poor bugger has spent most of it's life in my Mum & Dad's loft. Then a bit more of it in the spare room of my Daughters house.
I built it from parts when I was in my early teens (I've no idea what year) It took me quite a while to get all the parts. I wish I can remember where I got them all from. All I can remember is I got the Frame, Forks, Ladder Bars and seat post from dp. Dave Park himself delivered them to my house. How cool is that!! The Wheels were from OT.

The dp seat post is in storage after I took it off to take a picture for Firebird Steve to put on his website http://www.dpfirebird.co.uk/#/accessories/4532460617
I had a full padset and two lots of dp stunt pegs but I think I chucked them out as a youff

I robbed the idea for the colourscheme from the Skyway StreatBeat advert when I used to get BMX Action Bike.

I'm going to get it cleaned up as a survivor & NO none of it is for sale!!

No, born, bread and buttered in Northwich, Cheshire. Did someone copy my ride?
