Title: Patterson PR200 1983

Thank you. Team Patterson 83 to 85. My PR200, few lil changes re seats and bars (race v stunts). This is my actual race frame rebuilt to how I used to have it. This lil baby won the 15 expert 1985 IBMXF European Championships in Spain. Although I had just started riding for Redline, so had to put Redline stickers on it, was not happy about peeling the stickers off but couldn't give up my Patterson. Riding it feels like home!

Is this THE Tom “It’s a sinch” Lynch!?! Assuming so, it’s great to see a British legend on Rad. Both rider and bike rock(ed)!! :bow:

Ah thanks Matt. It is an incredible experience. You guys have made a great platform/ Home. Just concentrating on two more builds based on my past Factory team rides. So the guys know, we had great times in the early eighties. You had the Factory pro approach all sorted when you were 11 or 12 yrs old! Still got it dude, been such a pleasure looking at your awesome builds! Thanks for all the advice from you and the other guys from Rad, king of the Robinsons King Carlos has been so cool regarding my Robinson. Keachy to thank for starting me off, then Woody, Gosling, Carl, Stupple and Hearn. Having a great time, Tom
