If your 43 and worried about riding an old school bmx again, maybe get yourself to MK15 in august.
There may be a few of like minded people all doing the same.
 :daumenhoch:

p.s You'll regret selling it, only a very few of us still have the bikes we had bitd, I wish I had one of mine.
  ;)

I've kept it for over 30years, not gonna sell it, selling it is not an option ive considered.
I'd rather sell my bell end!! Ha ha!!
Thanks for all the encouragement.

Nice bike chief  8)
 Just a thought .... If you do end up selling your bell end , don't worry join one of the Facebook groups as there are plenty of them on there  :)

welcome  :daumenhoch:

great bike  :daumenhoch:

keep it as original as you can, you can go a long way with just some Peek polish and a goddards silver cloth  :daumenhoch:

please don't resticker it, rechrome it or powder it  Thumbs down

and bring it to MK in August  :daumenhoch: (or any one of the RAD rideouts)

Thanks. I'm not re-chroming it or restickering it. Gave it a bit of a clean earlier and was looking good. Will post some pics up later.

& peek and goddards cloth  :daumenhoch:

Have a read of this thread & it will be looking lovely in no time ;)
http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,153492.0.html

Ok it might take a while but it'll be worth it, only thing to add is to begin with if you have any rusty bits you might want to give it a citric acid bath to save on labour, but yours doesn't look in bad nick at all
