Title: So who is going, and what are you racing on????
Post by: Rooonga on August 26, 2005, 01:58 PM: Hi there,

No-one has actually asked this yet, so I gotta know which RADBMX members are coming along to Bournemouth?

Everyone who's goin please let us know here.

Also are you camping from Sunday?

And finally - lets see those race bikes. I know some of you wanna keep your show bikes secret, so show us what you will be riding on.

Here's my rides for the day:

1 - my 20" Torker - Lovely bike to ride except for having about 70% loose spokes! (Rusted with no time/money to replace.)
(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/v216/Rooonga/torker.jpg)

2 - My 24" GT. This will be my main ride as the wheels are good, and has working brakes! (Will be needed i fear!)
(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/v216/Rooonga/GT24.jpg)

So come on - let us all know if you're coming, and what you're riding..

I am so excited - gonna need sleepin pills to get any kip from now on LOL!

:D

Post by: retrogeezer on August 27, 2005, 09:45 PM: This is what I will be riding around on...not quite finished yet.

I know the power disc/chainring is the wrong way round, it's how I got it and it seems to have been done as the chain lines up better like this.
