Welcome Mr. Fiola
« on: February 11, 2009, 02:47 AM »
Like the title says, welcome Eddie.  I was going to post these in the other thread but it just didn't seem right.  In case you couldn't tell, you have a HUGE following of fans from back in the day and still today.  You were such a inspiration to almost every freestyler on this site including myself, none more than Quadrophenia.  I can remember the first time I met you at the Pipeline in 84 and your riding style has influenced my own ever since, forever imitated but never duplicated.  I am sure your inbox will be flooded by pm's, but don't let that scare you off.  This site has a wealth of knowlegde and history and great people.  Take a peek around and check some of the archived pages, your name is in quite a few of them.  Thank you for all that you have done for the sport.

Andy Shohara

Welcome again Eddie, here's a few bits from BMX Action over '82 - '83 for the archive, I'm guessing the '82 BMXA must be your earliest cover. Enjoy guys ;)
