Excellent photo's You do have a lot of gems from BITD, I love looking at them
Great pics, its not often you would get a show like that by US pros in Scotland in the 80's.Good for you being there and talking the pics. Did you not have a chance of meeting Fiola and Breed?I would have loved to have seen that show, but I lived too far away at the time (up in Stoneybridge).I always remember the pair of them on the TV show Wack-A-Day, doing a routine to Axel F. Its on YouTube now I see. Breed is smooth, while Fiola touches too often.Cheers
Great pics Gary. never managed to get to that show as I had fallen out with my Dad and he wouldnt drive me. I was fortunate enough to meet Eddie, Dave and Mike Dominguez when they came to Livi skatepark. I'm in the background of one of the pics thet were in the action bike spread. I've still got a signed GT VHS video that Eddie gave me that afternoon.
Great pics, bet your stoked finding them after all that time
excellent photos mate! keep them coming!...

Sorry to disappoint you!Are you sure it aint Jess? I liked the pics of Andy Irwin but the rest were crap.
I'm over the moon at being able to share these with you all....!Since rescuing all my bmx parts, mags and photos from a parental clear out a while ago, I thought I'd lost these pics (and others that will be posted up shortly!). Imagine my delight when I found them during a rummage through the "photo" box last Thursday!These were taken at the 1985 (Correct me if I'm wrong) GT World Tour at Coasters Arena in Falkirk.Great day, I think myself and 2 other pals (may have been more - bloody long time ago!) caught the train out from Glasgow to see it.Needless to say, it was the first time we had seen many of the tricks the guys showed us that day, and yes, we did spend the time waiting for the train home trying to learn infinity rolls on the platform!It wasn't long after this show that I started hitting the contests more and progressing through the ranks. You could say that it all started here....NO FOOKIN WAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Well done G a great find, man I just took a trip back in time lookin at those pics, I also remember me you and mic all trying infinity rolls on the platform waiting for the train lol.Lookin forward to seeing more of your prize find pics ..
Woww!! Brilliant pic's!! Great pic of that X-up air... how good was that for 1985!!
