yeah, like those GHP forks wot i got, some things are just meant to be, loads of things turn up, like sandwich corners when you leave them in the sun, moons trousers before he can wear them, my nose when i see a hutch, my nob when i smell scampy flavoured fries, everything turns up in the end. :D
-
i remember stealing a set of those stickers & putting them on my red burner when i was a kid... didnt think id see them again
-
What I tend to find is that I spend ages searching and waiting for some item to turn up somewhere, only to eventually give up, buy some alternative and then .... Yep the original item I wanted suddenly appears on ebay! :'(
-
Yeah usually three or four of them at the same time.
-
Do you HAVE to keep bringing up those GHP fokes???? LOL :'(
-
sorry dude, they wind a few others up as well. nowt personal. :-X
-
I know. LOL
-
You need to scan em in and let us all share in your excitement!

I am now the proud owner of Dave Youngs G.H.P. cruiser. (Thanks Dave. I know it hurt.) I was involved with it's import into the U.K. in about 1984-5. Me Ed Sedgwick and Guy (Bass Generator) imported it. I think another member on here had it before Dave. So now all I have to do is find some G.H.P. cruiser bars and another G.H.P. seat post.
-
nice bike dude, good luck with the seatpost n bars, post a piccy when its done.
-
Bren Gunn,

Yes I have Sander :)

Hey Bobby
Got that Cruiser by default in 85/86 when Ed managed to get my Torker cruiser, which was on loan to him at the time, stolen at some freestyle comp in Newcastle. Raced it in 86 and got 1NE on it then it when in the loft for a lot of years until Dave wanted a Cruiser to put 26" wheels on and do the bike courier thing he got into (in about 93/94) so you managed to get it off the longest custodian todate. Hope you enjoy it, it's a good ride.
Andy
P.S. I've still got the Haro I traded for it.
-
Nice one! So you remember Ed Sedgwick? I remember the day that cruiser came into the office on Low Friars Street. Do you remember Ed's girlfriend and her sister? :o We used to go up to his house to do some pool jumping until we got banned and Ed got kicked out because we ripped the pool lining. LOL We must get together next time I am up.
-
Hey Bobby,
Can't even remember what Ed looks like to be honest and only had a few dealings with him in 85/86 when he was trying to get the GHP and Patterson importing going (I got a couple of Patterson sticker packs off him). Yeh next time yer up me and Dave will take yer to Hartlepool so yer can try one of yer GHP's out.
