At this point I would be happy to own a 20" bike and ride down the street, But I have to remember, baby steps.  That is the trick I hope to accomplish first.

It does take a bit of time to get back in to it Andy, just get plenty of padding, and wear it !  I had a 20 year break from bmx, in fact from all bikes really, but I`m enjoying it more than ever  :daumenhoch:
  at least you were good b.i.t.d, i'm crap and all ways have been.

Hi all

Flatland for me - I'm hoping to master the no handed wheelie again this year. I can now wheelie for hundreds of metres (until I get bored), go in circles, do one handers, wheelie from a standing start straight away, and also wheelie from a backhop / endo, plus wheelie and spin the bars 180 degrees, land it then spin it out without falling off ( ;D crashed a few times though).

I would also like to be able to get around a bike, onto the front wheel balance for minutes and lay it down etc every time without putting a foot down. I have picked it all up again but need the finesse now and also to know what the terms / names are.

How about some comps at the summer Rad meets - i'm up for it and on me Burner too  :D

Can still pull bar endo's and a 360 tailwhip, but would really like to be able do a cherry picker, could never do them bitd and still can't!  Alternatively riding the ramps again, not done it yet but intend to during the summer  :daumenhoch:


Better to crash and burn than fade away

I very nearly gave up this time around after being back on the bike, or should I say arse, for two weeks. I built a 85 Haro master and turned up to the Rom jam in 2004 and spent almost the whole time on the floor  :(

I went back two weeks later after I had recovered and still couldn`t do a thing, and thought to myself that I`d made a big mistake and should give up trying, but out of the blue I pulled a 540 kickturn and that was it, I was back  :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!'
