Pete Middleton
« on: August 18, 2006, 11:32 AM »
Well as you May know Pete Middleton is selling his Factory Zeronine on Ebay at the moment, Fantastic bike.

Well I was lucky enough to live near pete when I started, and he was a wikkid rider... and cool bloke

I emailed him through the bay yesterday not really expecting him to reply, 20+ years is a long time to remember people.

Well I got a reply this morning....

Hi Tony,Hows it going? All good this end, just getting older and trying to be sensible!!!!!!!!!!Have seen Craig scoff and Tony Slater a few times at a track near me, but other than that no real contact with the old world. Hope your ok keep your eyes open for one of these re-unions that keep coming up I might get to oneof them one day. Anyway look after yourself mate. Pete.

It was great to hear from him, and I mailed him back about RADBMX, so hopefully if he gets time he may log in for a chat, and share some of his memories and pics.

Hi all

I have had a good look at that too, it looks a minter.

Glad that the reserve is high so that it will go to a good home.

Be a great shame if it goes abroad though  :'(

Hi all

Before you get it Guy, it has got to hit reserve. There may not be many people with the right monies at the moment so bidding could stay roughly as it is and not hit reserve, or it could stay low then just a few bidders have a mad snipe war at the end and the most money of course wins.

Will he not end early for the right monies?

It would be a real shame if it was lost from the UK.

I haven't asked him to end early, but the reserve must be pretty high. I would like to win it, but my remark was only tongue in cheek, it's a free country  ;) If it doesn't sell, I may see if he wants to have a deal.

Pete is a fair bloke (unless your next to him on the gate!!!) So I hope he does come up with a price for it to stay in the UK

Well I didn't win it, cos it didn't meet reserve. I was gonna put in a higher bid, but was busy, and didn't have a snipe set. I have tried mailing Pete, but not had a reply yet. If anybody could get in touch with him on my behalf, I would be really grateful  :)

Hi all. Just a quick note to big you all up for talking about me and my bike. Guy sorry you were outbid, I have mailed you it is only the fact that I opened the mail from the fellow that outbid you first and then replied to him , that you didn't get the chance. That said if he does not come through, you will be the first person I come back to. Massive shout to you all, if anyone knows why the site wont let load my profile pic please letme know. It would be wicked if you could see my new business!!!!    And Pats face was a picture when I got off my bike and took my helmet off..
