Never in my wildest dreams did i think i would see pics on here of the K-Team, Fiola and Morales at siloth. I mentioned in a thread on here a while ago Pepi dropping off the caravan roof and that Fiola thought it was mental and you post a pic of it. Pepi had this whole demo on betamax in the 80's.
I remember Fiola and Morales had to be sneaked out of the back of a static caravan as they were gonna get mobbed, BMX was so big then!
In the pic of Fiola doing the bar press the bloke on the left is Frank Mumberson he is the man that went to Border TV with the idea of BMX Beat and made it happen.
I think i see willy smith on the deck in one of the pics did you get these pics from lee or nicky by any chance (smithy)
As you can tell i'm blown away by these pics, thanks for posting.

Sorry ,different Smithy ,he's the guy riding in most of the pics with the Kuwi coloured premier helmet and has the huge ginga haircut

.Local riders from Consett and travelled up to see fiola,etc that day.Looks like they were worth posting then,glad they bring back memories for someone...............
