If you know Andy ( Mr DTTDB ) and I then you know we love all things RAD and all things BMX ... today was one of those magical days!
Starting at 8.00am we started the long journey down to Dagenham to see RAD legend and master of powdercoating Daniel Purcell aka Super Bike Dan
We got to meet the great man and see where the magic happens...

Finally we couldn’t do a BMX trip without a pre-MK18 trip to Milton Keynes and the spiritual Home of RAD ...

That was a cool trip you had Ant and Andy! :4_17_5: Great pictures :daumenhoch:
-
Thanks for postimg this up Ant. Officially one of the best days ever!
-
Amazing day guys! Right up my street is that :daumenhoch:
Guessing you didn't see any RGD rotors lying around then? :LolLolLolLol:
What's the crack with the front brake on the haro? Looks like some sort of mod on the cable routing side :chin:
-
Looks a top day lads, any sign of Superbike Hayley?

One of the guys in Mason’s shop was talking about RGD rotors 8)
-

No sign of her. We thought you might ask about her!

We were thinking of you Dan but sadly she was nowhere to be seen

Clint
Someone’s posted pics of an RGD rotor on the Rad FB page todat
Tagged your kid as I know you’re not on there, but if anyone deserves one it’s you mate
I’d quite like a stem though :teef:
-
RGD stuff is on the wall, SBD deffo has downs
-
just seen the Facebook pic. I NEED one of of those rotors!!!!!!!!
Time to message Mr Mason methinks. Pic looks decidedly like a box of bits in the back of a certain bmx shop!
-
I’m sure they had stems too! Give them a bell mate fistblump
-
Great road trip Ant, although being Stevenage born and bred I can't let you get away with Custom Riders being there. They're in Letchworth :daumenhoch:
That Burner has clocked up some mileage now though ;D :daumenhoch:

went to Rom ... no riding pics :tumbleweed:
-
Great stuff lads :4_17_5:
-
Cool ride and pics! :daumenhoch:
-
went to Rom ... no riding pics :tumbleweed:
It was a real DOH moment ... :crazy2: we didn’t plan anything apart from SBDs ... believe me we were gutted too!
In life some of the best times are those that are spontaneous.. this was one of those days ..
no bikes but still bloody brilliant! fistblump

Planet Rock should be banned from MK.

Nice one lads fistblump ;)

Awesome stuff lads. Looks like a top time was had :daumenhoch: :radbmxsmilie:

Great trip lads and probably cheaper than the cost of a courier to transport a burner frame down there! ;D
-
In case you missed it
Ed’s organising a proper visit to Rom (see events)
Definitely worth having a roll around - I went for the first time last year and it was probably the most fun I’ve ever had on a bike :daumenhoch:
