« on: September 28, 2005, 10:33 PM »
seeing as the site membership has grown quite a bit while i`ve had a bit of computer down time . i thought i`d ask about a riding hero/aqaintamce ( if thats how you spell it?)

Mr Andy / Angry Brown. a regular rider at South Bank in the dark mid school days. a total inovator of street riding and regular Haro breaker. also ran a closing line called Evolution.

jus curious!!

If he has re-joined then its under a new name, you can still visit the old site and send e-mails to members if need be  ;)

I wouldn't mind hooking up with him again.
Last I knew, he was living in Plumstead. We sort of lost touch after I let him down rather badly with a comic strip script he'd written. My fault entirely, he said to keep in touch and I just never did.
Nowadays, I might just have time (and the means, if he's online) to keep up with people.

If you ever wore an Evolution T-Shirt, chances are the artwork was done by me.

Well, I exchanged mails with Andy over the weekend. He said there was something on the Meanwhile site about me that made him think I was back in my original Derbyshire location. Must get that put right, anyone tell me where he meant?

I intend to publish some pics of the Evolution stuff I still have on my website, when I get the time. Maybe with Andy's feedback there'll be more info on the way this stuff 'evolved'. But for now, we've got to meet up and catch up on over 8 years of stuff. Should be fun.

Okay then i tried this one a while back too.

To me this is one of the Grand daddies of BMX

Pete Daniels. he was in in late 30`s in about 1988

Rumoured he rode in a freestyle demo in the Albert hall in about 83..

N E 1 ?

The name Rings a bell, 'cept every time I hear the surname Daniels, I think of C-3P0 or parklife!

So Colin is lost eh?  How about Aju Bubu?


Also, I work in the City, and saw a bloke ride past me in Bishopsgate, earphones on, obviously a flatlander.  I'm sure it was Phil Dolan. Was a bit surpised to see him, and he was on the other side of the road so I couldn't pull him up to say hi.

Also, Jason Hassle. I've heard rumours he's living in Oz.  Anyone confirm that?

Or for that Matter Paul Zak.  I haven't seen him for a couple of years.  Seen Paul Gerlak a few times mind.

I always forget to mention this, so I'll write it down here.
I'm sure I saw flatlander Jason Webb waiting for a train at a District Line station in about 1995-6. He still had a Trickstar, in pink (I think he still had the forkstander fitted to his seattube, if I think about it).
Unfortunately, I never knew him well enough to go over and chat.

Webby was always a nice fella Wayne.  Very Quite. Very un-assuming.

By the way, did anyone know Gary McCalister? 

I never got on with him, until after BMX (I was a twat  a twat the time, he was a twat the time).
Got to know him after we stopped riding and we both grew up a bit.

I was informed by a mutual mate that he died of testicular cancer.  Lifes fooking strange like that.

Really pissed me off to be truthful.  He was a nice bloke.  And much like myself, was just pissed off and angry when he was younger.

Toast to Gary McCalister anyone?

Not Dave Dean? 

Do I know you stuntmaster?  Were you a southbank regular?

Aju was such a top bloke.  Really was. 


Also, I shit you not, once you got past all the shit with Gary, he was a really nice fella.

Gary, I'll sink one for you mate when I get the chance.
