Pictures, Rom Feb 1985 1
« on: January 15, 2007, 11:14 PM »
New to this excellent site,   back in the eighties was into BMX & photography, after a 21 year break, back into BMX & photography. 

Anyway, have been clearing the loft and came across some old photos that I that  I had taken at Rom in Feb 1985,  thought I would share with  RADBMX , more to follow.


JESS DYRENFORTH








Craig Campbell on a Pro-Lite



I don't know the name of this guy, but he was airing as high as Jess, Neil + Craig that day.

I recon the frame was ready, but not the uniform. I see Peter Hawkins camera in hand there too  :police:

I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
 Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
 Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
 Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'

feckin ace photos, check the trickstar with vdc freestyle bars, i think the legend of jess getting 13ft out of the performance might have been a small fib

There are loads of these surfacing now...perhaps it's time for a classic pics section?

You could divide it by; Freestyle & Race and then by the park (rom, harrow, slades, etc) or track (b'mouth, hayes, mk, etc)...it would be a nice one stop resource then...I think someone else mentioned it in the past also...

What do you think?

I've got dozens to add!
