Title: just another new guy.
Post by: Tee on June 18, 2012, 05:01 PM
Hello,

I'm Tee, 35.

I recently joined up to the forum, so thought I better start by saying hello.
I've been riding bmx since the mid 80's. Had a little break from 00-09 but got back into the swing of things full flow before breaking my elbow quite badly, it seems I'm not as talented as I was during the 90's. I'm back on my bike now though and loving every minute of it.

I've got a few bikes at the moment, Sunday wave, Standard 250L and my main ride, a 2004 T1 Barcode, without doubt the best frame I've ever owned.

This seems like a really good forum, full of good info and decent people. And I'm looking forward to chatting, and maybe riding with some more like minded older riders.

Hi Tee

welcome to the site.

Enough of the new school stuff, what did you ride in the 80s?

How long you have you had the T1?

hello mate, through the 80's I had all sorts, usually just a beat up bike that I got together from spares. I didn't really appreciate bikes until the mid 90's.

I got the Barcode about a year ago from a mate, he's had it sat in his garage for a few years, when I got it it looked like this.

Cleaned it up a bit, got ride of the rust and a quick rattlecan paintjob, and this is how it looks now.

Just waiting for a set of Powerbites to show up and its ready to go again.
