Do you think I can't hear you!!

No It's just I thought there would be a real effort to recreate the golden days of BMX at bournemouth and yet I didn't see one full gate of OS bikes. I'm just hoping some of those great pieces of history we keep in our sheds make it to the gate at MK

It would be unfair to have new and old school in the same races, so that won`t be happening.

TBH we would like to see as many old school bikes on the track as possible, but we don`t want to stop people racing just because they don`t have an old school bike to ride.

if any one wants to race my sling shot when its finished you are more than welcome
i would like to see it ridden even if it is a bucking bronco it was built to race so it should.
ive given it a good build up ,sittin in my garage aint what its all about.

Jazzchimp · « **Reply #19 on:** May 25, 2006, 09:23 AM »

I toallt agree Bill, but then we do need to promote getting them OS bikes on the gate

oberonspacefruit · « **Reply #20 on:** May 25, 2006, 09:26 AM »

id like a bounce on the slingshot harris.

harris · « **Reply #21 on:** May 25, 2006, 11:24 AM »

you got it mate it will be there waiting for yu :daumenhoch:revived from the brink of the bake bean making machine.
cant wait to see it rip.

I confess that having had a pootle around a few tracks in recent years I am totally crap (wasn't much better years ago) and pedestrian about every jump so I'm up for a race full of shiny old chrome. I'd be no better on a new school bike so what's the worry? I'll bring along whatever bikes I can, if they get scratched to bits then never mind. They're only bikes, after all...

harris · « **Reply #24 on:** May 25, 2006, 12:52 PM »

boingy frame and z rims i think you will do well to even bimble bounce maybe.i think i may bring a set of alloy rims
to prevent damage occuring to you not the bike
