I would love a couple of hours in Bob Osborne, Wendy Osborne, and TLB's archives. The number of pictures that they must have that never made it into the magazines must be staggering.

yeah cant you ring him? Your nearest.

I have done a photo shoot with Bob Osborne and TLB and never seen any of the pics

these photos needed another airing

TLB runs the whenwewasrad.co.uk website, which for the most part deals with the mag when it was no longer BMX Action Bike and switched to RAD Magazine, which was more heavily skate influenced. I sent him a message suggesting he put together a photo/coffee book of his images, like you guys mentioned he must literally have thousands.
He pretty much documented the whole UK BMX/skate scene for umpteen years.
It would be great if he did, maybe we should get a petition together and pester him...

Great pics Andy. Love um. Did I see one you posted on a site somewhere with Hugo G standing next to a massive camo monster truck wearing very short cut-off shorts and a cropped T-shirt? It was so 80s it was great!

It was a while back that we went to Livi Gary, and although it looks like it could still be a great part we were a bit disapointed by the big bowl now having coping around it, and it being full of glass

bmxer4ever · « **Reply #45 on:** November 07, 2009, 03:16 PM »

Know what you mean about the coping Bill, don't think I've aired it since they put that in! And the locals idiots do like to abuse it... Guess that's one of the problems of an open, free skatepark... Shame.

Great pics Gary ,that Junior pic is probs the highest air out of the bowl i have ever seen.
I remember well the reputation Junior had bitd for going high out of the bowl, I did see him ride the bowl once but he was only getting a couple of feet out.
I seen framey ride livi in 85 and he blew me away he had all the lines down.
Livi has that historical feel about it when you go, you just cant help but think back to all the things that have gone on there.
You usally have plenty of time to think when your there as its a miracle if it isn't p***ing down.
