Riding a BMX track with smooth tyres and pegs always has a sence of class. Indicates that you do it all, all on the same bike. Just bring it on and you'll ride it.

Dan ... looks to me like you could have tried a bit harder! ha ha, just jokin. Really good to see you on a bike (I missed you the first time I think).

Nice one, good stuff both of you.

nice1 dan, cruising round the track is great fun  8), you can do it your own pace and build it up slowly,

 a bit less daunting than trying to ride ramps after a long brerak out from riding  ;)

ratty, well done... now you've actually got dan on a bike, the buzz will come back to him whether he likes it or not.

i know the issues he has with it, and i've tried long and hard to convince him to ride again, but i respect his reasons for not giving it a go again.  all the same, if he decides to give it one more bash, i'm sure everyone would be well stoked. the only problem we'd have is that we'd need another david bailey to photograph us, although it would seem that superfly paul has all the credentials....  :LolLolLolLol:

come on dan, one more time for old times sake....

Trev, I know Dan has issues but you needed to see the grin on his boat today, he loves it, an Dan in your own time, we got a gate with your name on it :daumenhoch:

we've also got some lines at rom with his name on. i've seen pics of lines he's ridden which i've never ever seen anyone else do.
i know he'd love nothing more than getting back on a bike (maybe i could sort him out a brand new ilegal  :daumenhoch: )


dan, you know it's only a matter of time now.  don't leave it too late and forever regret not giving it one last bash.  i know the issues behind your aprehension, but it's got to be worth giving it one more chance. the buzz it would give rom alone would be worth it.
