Was that Wigan Dave ?

If it was I remember it being freezing cold, wet, with a gale force wind.

And how comes you never took any pics of me, although having said that they would have been shit anyway as I bottled it a bit on the quarter pipe because of the conditions

Dunno if ya remember or not,but that master he is riding on those pics,was that Bob haro's bike or did MD have a master very similar to Bobs.

Yeah,that one Dom,but i've got various pics with different bits some times,b1b's,then B2's,differnt stickered plates etc....Pretty sure it's only one bike they shared through the Kelloggs along with the Sport Mike rode,but just wondered if anyone remembered seeing Bob and mike using the same bike........

All I can think of Dom is it was a white 84 Sport, that was chromed underneath like some of the green 85 Master's were $:-\$

PHIPPSIO · « **Reply #15 on:** February 27, 2009, 09:34 PM »

whoever finds that bike has a collectors piece

Did these guys not realise that these bikes would one day be famous? They were well known bikes featured in mags and footage everywhere at the time. I know pro footballers keep old boots and tennis players old rackets. I would have kept mine if i was them.

Maybe its still out there somewhere.

Maybe Chris,but the only thing strange about that theory is that 85 masters were made in chrome,so overpainting them seems logic,but 84 sports were only made in white(apart from Rich Sigurs Prototype)....possibly :LolLolLolLol:god only knows,but that chrome sport Dom is a strange one,any idea what year/month Mag that pic is from?

Great pics Dave.

About the bike I'm a bit confused, he rode the sport with the black tuffs at the first kellogs, he was riding it when he did that kickturn crash and also when he went to Livingston with Fiola, but it now seems he was riding the master for much of the visit, the master looks very much like the Bob Haro's.

Mike did use the sport at the Kelloggs,but i reckon he was expecting to rip it up on some knarly ramps at the comp,but instead had to backhop through cones and use that crappy ramp and looks like they had minimum space at the Kelloggs rounds,so i reckon he went for the master as it ran a coaster,unlike his sport......just a guess though

i broke both my arms on that red and yellow kellogs ramp...piece of sh1t

CD17 · « **Reply #24 on:** February 28, 2009, 02:28 PM »

I did read somewhere that when Bob Haro would do demo's & tour's in other country's he would leave the bike with some kid after the last show, so both these bike's could have been left here or somewhere in europe, now that would be some find

& yes Jay I also think what you have said is probably what happened
