Wasnt that contest on one of grants Videos but also on others too, I forget what ones.

I think Grant has put his footage on line already but he might have done it on Myspace not Youtube so Im not sure how to find it.

[harris]

[SaMAlex]

[harris]

[teamsano]

[harris]

nice one i enjoyed that   
makes me think apart from the tv stuff and mags
that bmx has in modern times even stalled not progressed as most think
that would slide in to any of todays sessions ..raw

[woody allen bars]

Cool vid, and liked The Fall tune too 

[gossa]

loving the hair gogo! Shall we have a gayest hair of the past comp?

[harris]

that will take some beating clive
but i did find this pair of lads at rom skatepark last summer

[SaMAlex]

Im not sure if this haircut counts as Gay, but there is 'Something' about it   



Oh, Ive still got my dreads in a draw upstairs. I really dont chuck anything out, do I?

[perry]

the lad on the left is better off as at least his curls ( and is he pouting   ) , with the right rust treatment he could have a half decent mop but the one on the right has the same thin hair ailment as me , just not thick enough to have long , and damn he needs to be told that mulletesque do isnt going to do him any favours  

note his bumfluff on the chin too

and alex , that is an awful cut , but at least its era correct lol

[gossa]

come on, this is a whole new thread, post up the '80s mullets!

Dan, those Rom boys are wronguns mate!  What do you reckon to little Dylan Claytoms curly wee mop in that pic with me?  Bless his little cotton socks eh?

[harris]

i have saved that pic for future reference     clive
we did chuckle at them lads, as i dont actually take pics of lads usually
but we was in stitches.

[perry]

"as i dont actually take pics of lads usually officer " 

 

a few things me and mates would shout were

" curtainssss "
"mulletron "
and " church hair " in a questioning mockingly way when someones hair was a little tooo neat

[teamsano]

'factory hair'

[oldschool rider]

SHIT that was the last comp I was at Before I moved to Mallorca, I remember that weekend as if it was yesterday, and yes the SCOTS ruled the day, think I'll go and put "GET UP" on the video and watch some of the action.

Infact think I'll watch "Glasgow Underground & Get Up" as I still own these two Scottish Video Classics made by non other than BMXER4EVER back in the day.

GoGo can't believe you still have the whole "Team Sano" thing goin on how cool is that !

Question is do you remember me ? lol I'm stevie I used to ride with Mic Reilly, Gary Forsyth, Amos & Andy, if so good to see your still keepin it bmx like the rest of us.


Adios Amigos.

[dialledbikes]

First mid/new school vid I ever bought was (I think) called Misspent Youth (or something like that) and it had an Amos Burke and Andy Burke section on it with a rap track that was actually called "Amos and Andy", which I thought was kinda cool.  Seeing those comp results above reminded me of it.

[teamsano]

ah, stevie macpherson!

how you doin man? of course i remember you, spoke to mike and gary quite a bit recently and heard you're doin not to bad over in spain.

nice to hear from ya dude.

[oldschool rider]

smiles at being remembered  Yeah Gary has just been over for a short holiday with his bike (after 16yrs living here lol) and me him and my new bike went out ridin, was havin a great time till I popped my knee out it's socket but slowly on the mend, need to bring my bike over next xmas and we can all have a laugh at unit23 looks a great place to ride, especially the new bowl.

If you see Timmins etc say hi for me.

Adios amigo.
