reading through the other thread about fiolas signature frame it dawned on me that rad is
full of people who "were someone" BITD we have loads of ex factory racers, team sponsored freestylers,
some of the biggest names in bmx history frequent theses boards.

so........................................................ who did fook all as a kid apart for pedal about on their bmx, read bmx weekly
and dream about owning a decent bike

there must be loads of us on here that just enjoyed our bike but never achieved anything.

COME ON STAND UP AND BE COUNTED

I was a complete nobody back in the day.

I'm proud to say that I remain an even greater nobody today. I ride with nobody's at the weekend. I'm glad to say that Nobody's beaten me at every race and I beat nobody as well.

I'm still a nobody! At least i'm consistent.

Me - although I was the best in our close on the estate I grew up on (could do a brake stand see - no-one else could...)

I did meet Andy Ruffel once at a signing in a Raleigh bike shop in about '85 - he asked me how many back hops I could do - I lied and said 20...

I was a nobody.

My only claim to fame was I could out gate Sam Dovey at C0cksmoors gate practice, although him being a darn good racer meant my lead never lasted long.
But if I did keep up he sent me over a berm
