Title: My Old Rom Pics
Post by: DML on April 25, 2007, 10:45 PM

After chatting to Superfly at Rom on sunday and seeing his pics of Rom bitd i've finally got round to posting my old pic's.

The first one is in the Halfpipe/bullet and the rest are in the performance bowl as for the year i'm not 100% sure but i think it was 86.

Cheers, if you look a bit further down that thread you can see me on a copper federal 

i don't own an old school bike at the moment but would like to build up another Firebird like in the pictures a some point although i understand that they can be hard to find/expensive.

Lets keep the old school pic's coming. Just great to drift back to the 80's instead of concentrating on work :2funny:

Seems like loads of you were lucky enough to live near a skatepark.

Great pics man,  I can even remember the graffiti !   

I spent many days of my summer holidays in Rom and many pennies playing Outrunner (I think it was called that, it was a car where rockets and stuff landed on the roof and you shot other drivers), and drinking slush puppies in the cafe.

Cheers for that.......Adam
