How did u get back into bmx
Jono:
its all rick gibbs fault, january last year me n wife were in tenerife we got talking about her brother who she'd not seen or heard from for 2 years as he lives in salisbury, we in manchester, i said i'd sort it when we got home. on return i got daughter to set up a facebook account for me, as didn't use it, looked for him, but nothing, so searched for his teenage daughter, found her straight away, pm'd her and wife was talking to her brother for first time in 2 years+ plenty of crying and the world's right again. 2 days later rick gibbs added me as a friend so i had a look at his profile, he'd just been on a ride, leeds or liverpool i think, saw loads of lads getting pissed on old school bikes, jumped on ebay and that was it!!!! so rick you owe me a small fortune, but met some great lads far too many to mention and never looked back

For me for some reason I wanted a pk ripper just in the house started looking but had no idea what was what looked ebay etc found rad put a wanted as up for pk had no luck and first bike I got was redline proline 20 Complete bike just without wheels but with 401 cranks with Phil wood spider all for the princely sum of £370 plus post from USA though but even so was cheap really , then got an fst haro then a 90s ripper and carried on from there

My mum said if you don't want your old bike in the garage I'll take it to the tip !!!
Searched the net, found vincent frames site & contacted katie. Said I fancied doing it up & she pointed me to rad.
The 5 bikes & shit everywhere must be her fault then :LolLolLolLol:

A friend told me they had rebuilt the old hereford track to national standard, so I took junior up to have a go on it, two weeks later I had a tatty midschool diamondback my brother had had dumped in a bike shed at his work and I was having a og, then I remembered my old burner I had, then it snowballed
