Post by: paulb113 on March 02, 2013, 01:40 PM

Hi

Finally got my bike set up and started to play about trying all the old 80s tricks. Anybody know of any decent places to ride,or anybody who still rides old school flatland street etc?

Thanks

its full of young people with black bikes with low seats doing somersaults :LolLolLolLol: think being 43 I would kill myself on ramps, maybe stick to tarmac for a while.

Maybe try it some time when they are at school :LolLolLolLol:
