Title: Bewildered
Post by: Starchboss on December 30, 2008, 04:45 PM: :wtf:
I guess this is kinda off topic, but I got the latest Dig today, and although I'm only thirty, it made me feel old and useless and like selling my bike!
No names I recognise, all young n hip, HUUUGGGGE stuff and funny bikes. When did bikes get so funky?? When did plastic pedals become cool???? jesus........

Kinda creeps up on you eh?

As long as you're riding and smiling, I wouldn't worry about the youngsters. ;)

Post by: wirewheel on December 31, 2008, 08:51 AM: it aint about tricks man it's about participation and fun.

just being a bmx rider makes you super cool never mind tricks just ride fast land flat! hahaha.

or as obi wan said " use the force luke"

don't be afraid of landing on your ass. the kids will respect ya for trying as well as participating. as well as being confused to hell by 44tooth chainwheels!!!!!! the little rings are really a new trend.

bunny hop kerbs on the way to the convenience store buddy, its right there just as much as the skatepark/trails.

bmx. fork the hype. just ride and enjoy it for what it is

a bllody good laugh and an hour or two away from reality.

i'll never stop riding. 38 in april. f-it.
