Title: you might recognize these guys who walked into the shot
Post by: tricknuts on April 12, 2008, 07:14 AM
 My mate Paul   (in the cap below) lived in New York for a few years in the 90's.  (-I'm trying to get him out of retirement in Glasgow, so could do with some local's help in getting him onto a bike again.)   anyway he lived in Long Island for a few years. One day they went to BMX show thingy, and met some of the riders. They invited them back to their local  pub in Long Island once they finished their demo. .. sure enough, look who turned up turned up for a pint... Gutted i wasn't there.

Jay Miron was there too, but i don't know if he was in the photo... as I don't know what he looks like

Yeah, that look like Jay to me too.  The guy up top looks like Brad McDonald from Ride (US) and the guy in blue hat below is Kennan Harkin.

My Mate Paul lives in the West end. He's an old schooler just like the rest of us. I'm trying to get him to get back on a bike again, instead of sitting in the pub.   he's only got a mid school Mongoose DMC which is as heavy  as fook. He used to ride pretty decent.  He used to know your mate Marcus Cent. Is he back on a bike?   Anyway he just needs to get over that embarrassment of going to a park  full of kids ripping up the place. I'm sure it would help if he could meet up with some fellow old schoolers and get a  shot of a new school bike and see how better they feel.

Whats his second name - I might know him. Or more to the point he might know of me! That happens a lot.....I'm useless with names! He should wander down to Kelvingrove on a dry day. always somethin' goin' on down there. I've been livin' in the West End half my life now, so he's probably just round the corner from me. Get him on here for a look around...

Hi. Gary told me about this site.. and now I'm here. Must see if I can find some 20yr old pics and join the club. Who's this mate that knows me? Could be Paul Norbury. He appeared on facebook last year. Think the last time I saw him was the world's in France in 1988 or was it 89....
