no footed endo......in the dim and distant past    :Great_Britain:

a show ticket   :D

(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/o220/rosscoe63/scan80s0004.jpg)

tucked a much as I could tuck (dirt just aint what it used to be)    :4_17_5:

(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/o220/rosscoe63/scan80s0002.jpg)

the obligtory - showing the lads at work what I could do by jumping out of a truck at lunch (nb. I use to cycle about 9 miles each way to work on that bike too....)   :uglystupid2:

and a little bit of 80s air. Homemade quarter pipe, some parts you lot would probably kill for now - and those raleigh coloured Haro trousers

(http://www.radbmx.co.uk/archive/albums/o220/rosscoe63/scan80s0005.jpg)

on the last one we pinched the line from freestylin "the challenge here was to get as high as the fence, Dominguez went over it - can you beleive the guy" wrote it on the back of the fence and put my name on it...................

enjoy

oh, and if anybody is after an original Redline T piece allen key for the 401s (3/16th I think) let me know. Ive also got a polished DK stem (not really oldskool) and an original set of bolts for replacement skyway hubs - still in the bag.......

Andy Ruffell came to Eastbourne round about 84 and did a demo.

There was a new car on display that he jumped over. I wonder if it was the same tour.

Crikey Alex, you getting all controversial all of a sudden?  Don't forget Povah rode for them, although I can't remember what bike he did ride when riding for them :LolLolLolLol:

Ive got a soft spot for the mk1 pro. I bought one off Beard last year for a friend of mine, and I dont really like the way that they are always overlooked in favor of the aero pros.

I think Povah rode an aero pro, cos he gave one to Ian Oz. Ian rode it for quite a while (its in a picture in Mid, from an Oxford comp) until the frame broke into to halves. I guess it was a race frame really.
