I have always said that I ride toss then and now, I do enjoy bmxing but I dont think I have ever reached a good standard of riding. Where is the big head thing from? I only said to billy that I did both comps .I rode like a tw4t in both . Thanks for your advice Dan

it has changed my life. Everybody that knows me knows I am not a big head you have just read the post wrong.

I was a very lucky lad getting to ride with some great riders bitd. Why dont you come to Bones and I can show you my vanderroll

and your right they do laugh at me bacause I ride like a 40 year old trying to recapture some of the buzz. I dont sit about talking sh1te about who i used to be ,we just have a good time. I have ridden with Billy and had a good time.

Pike........... GT paid me to go to bmx beat I thought everybody got paid for that one. The Kellogs was with Alan so I think it cost me

leading you into skateboarding was a trip in itself, Pike left us all for dead on that too. He skated with the pro's on vert and was unreal. I have never seen anybody progress on a board like Pike.

andy, i remember your flip off the trick ramp and the millions of fly outs and drop ins. i also recall a cherry picker in your flat run.

I have never seen that and I have never wanted to see it. I rode bad whenever a camera was pointed at me. The comps took the fun out of it for me I liked just ridin with the lads.

Sorry, I'm a young'n but vaguely remember watchin bmx beat as a very young kid. I recently watched it again, so mike were you the lad on the Team Aero Pro ? If so, do you still have the bike ?

Sorry if I've got this wrong, like I say I'm not too old school.

cheers

Sorry, it's not a very clear pic.

jeff spicoli · « **Reply #34 on:** September 23, 2006, 01:54 PM »

Wow is that me? I dont recognise the bike but I can see a rector elbowpad that I always wore and still wear, not the same ones

I would love a clear pic of that to show my kids. I think that is Mason Smith in the Haro gear.

Ta for that Trev

Quote from: jeff spicoli

i was reigning world champion for 11 years straight. i was doing 900's in 1979. no one could beat me, i was unstoppable. i had to retire to give others a chance. fiola would drug me on the morning of a show so he didnt looks so shit compared to me. and after the shows i would have a bunk up with peter hawkins

jeff spicoli · « **Reply #39 on:** September 23, 2006, 03:25 PM »

:2funny:Your not usually this funny Graeme have you been saving it all up?. You are close except for the 900 stuff the world champion bit and the Peter Hawkins filth .

I was eight in 1979

I could only do a 720 then
