Couple of old pics and cuttings :-)
« on: April 28, 2011, 01:15 PM »
I forgot these turned up and found them again in an old album we had out so I thought I'd stick 'em up.

The only one of my DP ( the Fresh ramp one  8) ) makes me laugh as the wheel fell off the ramp when we were towing it home and rolled past as we stopped. My welding was never the best. I dropped that quarter pipe ( steel framed ) on my Dads toe once and he said 'bad words' in front of the team  ;D ;D ;D ;D

and that wooden QP  :shocked: that thing was jank

...and they were good  ;D

Ahh, the days of towing round twiglet ramps to village fetes to try & do a demo on a slightly boggy field, I miss those  :LolLolLolLol:

Rad pics Ed  fistblump  have to ask though, that ramp in the first pic, did you build it in the dark?!
