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.

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
