How long has the old school scene being going strong?
stidds:
Got back into BMX's about 5 years ago now, was on Vintage before the bans and subsequent UK exodus.
HEYWOOD BMX:
:) I went to the Alans OS event at Sankey Bridge around 2001? Any other Radsters go there?

Never involved in BMX seriously as a kid BITD.. Just me on my Raleigh Extra Burner jumping home-made ramps made of a sheet of plywood and a few discarded house bricks... but I loved it!!! Watching the Kelloggs stuff and then racing outside my house singin "BMX boys have alot of fun.." :D
Around 4 years ago, over a few drinks, me and some mates were talking about bikes we had as kids... and which was our favourites...
For me it was that Raleigh Extra Burner... 8)
2 days later I had won an eBay auction for a Raleigh Extra Burner... :buck2: :buck2:
4 years later... 12 Burners, 2 None Burners, My own Burner Website & Forum.. www.burnerworldforum.co.uk , Old School Racing up and down the country. Worked with Raleigh on the 25th Anniversary Edition bike... :daumenhoch: and my love of BMX is growing daily... Old School and New School...
I have met some fantastic guys over these years... especially at the OS race meets and at MK... in the main the guys from radbmx are a fantastic bunch.. :coolsmiley:
I hope the Old School Scene continues to go from Strength to Strength... 8) 8) 8)

for me it all went wrong about 2004.......always been into MTBing from about 97 but always used to think it would be cool to have an old BMX. so bored one afternoon at work (that doesn't narrow it down doesn it! ;) ) i typed in skyway into ebay and then old school bmx. :shocked: :shocked: my life has never quite been the same since :D ;D
met some great guys from here as well............don't know how some of them manage to ride as much as they do though....but hats off to em! i think i'd be divorced if i did the same! :LolLolLolLol:

Left the bmx scene in about '87 and then got heavily into mountain biking from early to late 90's. Started watching the Gravity games on Extreme in 2000 and thought I'd love to get another one but people would laugh at me. Then found Vintage which led me to Rad a few months after it was first set up on the old site. Good days ever since.
