Hatch Rad - Any Questions? Terry Jenkins?
« on: January 16, 2006, 03:54 PM »
Hatch Rad was my first purchase related to BMX even before I got a bike, and if you had a pair then your old school!!!

Billy Stup, what's up? Happy New Year, sorry I had to re-register I forgot my last log-on info, see what happens when you get old you start to forget small details...

Anyway as some of you may know if you read Andy's post I was back in England over the holidays. I always love coming back to the UK because now it's like a holiday, but this trip was especially great because I got to see my first and only UK team mate after 20 years. Well you know this was Andy Irwin and seeing him was great. After spending so much time with each other riding every day for years (even before Torker) doing so many shows together and competitions I felt like I was seeing my first girlfriend again after all those years!!!hahaha (Except Andy is bigger and uglier). All I can say that is that it was well overdue and to a large degree it really didn't feel as though 20 years had passed. Andy is awesome and he looks great despite being old like me.

I had also planned on seeing my other friend and riding partner Dave Young but unfortunately I was sick for some days and we had trouble coordinating due to my short time remaining plus Dave living the other side of England...next time Dave.

Mike Pardon...Andy said to me you told him my mum told you at a competition "my sons gonna beat you" sorry but I laughed when he told me this, after all these years you remembered that. I asked my mum if she said that and she didn't think she said anything like this, so I do apologize on her behalf if she did. I promise I've never asked her to intimidate competitors she must have been acting on her own!!!

Well I had briefly looked over some of the posts written and one question I read was did I ever jump out of the bowl onto the fence at Rathbone. Well the answer is yes but I don't think I was ever consistent until I got the Haro with a bash guard then I was able to really hang the front wheel over the fence and fakie it back in - but not before paying for it, wrecking my self every way possible.

If anyone has any questions I will do my best to answer them, maybe dispell some rumors, myths, urban legends etc

I want to wish everyone on RadBMX a Happy New Year!!!

Cheers - Terry Jenkins

Welcome back Terry, show us a pic of that nos Gen 1 again  :daumenhoch:
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!'

Hey Terry, thanks for answering that one.
When my mate first told me about that, I was like....yeah, whatever, sure, course he did. He was the wind up of our little BMX gang, and thats the main reason for doubting him !
We used to ride down to Edge Lane from Huyton, about five or six of us.
We would hang out all day there, and then pedal back home, trying to keep up with the cars on the downhill part of the Lane.
Great days, pity I never saw your jump.
Saying that, the bowl is still there mate.............

Mike Pardon is in Australia at the moment but he will get a kick out of your message , or I will for telling tales lol. ;D
Had a bit of an accident since I saw you and broke a few bones in my foot (tripped on the stairs) sad or what. I hope you are back into the swing of things in la la land and all is well with Vicky.

Alright lads thanks for the warm welcome and the responses

Andy how did you break your foot!!! My god and you didn't do it on a bike or skateboard...pathetic.  :idiot2:

are you that bloke with long bald hair who took over from johnny morris on animal magic?

lol is that terry nutkins?

No that's not me; Terry Nutkins is cool suave and sophisticated a ladies man if you will. Man about the town and a TV celebrity. I can't touch him! (Nor would I want to?)

Hey Terry, thanks for answering that one.
When my mate first told me about that, I was like....yeah, whatever, sure, course he did. He was the wind up of our little BMX gang, and that’s the main reason for doubting him!
We used to ride down to Edge Lane from Huyton, about five or six of us.
We would hang out all day there, and then pedal back home, trying to keep up with the cars on the downhill part of the Lane.
Great days, pity I never saw your jump.

Hey Currio, so living in Huyton did we ever ride together? I had a girlfriend who lived in Huyton, a bit psycho but that describes most Scouse girls...fun but crazy!!!


Welcome back Terry, show us a pic of that nos Gen 1 again  :daumenhoch:

Cheers Billy!!!! I will have to dig the photo up again, I am out in Detroit right now for the North American Auto Show when I get back home I will post it.


Oi Jenkins! get yer space bars out! among the best bars i ever owned!


Hey Lazarou I was tempted a several years back to make a few of the GenII Space Bars I designed that never made it to market. There was a production error a the factory where the GenII bars were being made as the Haro/Space Bars exclusive for the UK market. A huge disappointment as you can imagine :(
I still have the last pair I ever used on a bike, I'll take picture and post it they are the candy apple blue and chrome colour.

Cheers everyone...

Terry. I think you should have your UKBFA points docked for that.   I always thought all the UKBFA comps were perfectly legit.. Next we'll discover that some pro riders were using performance enhancing drugs..  ;)

Seriously, warm welcome. Loved your airs, and those space bars. Great to have you on board.   Hope you can dig out some old photos for the rest of us to enjoy.
Cheers
