Ok im nearly 36 with more than my fair share of grey hairs , the mountain biking is great but the urge to ride bmx again just will not go away, constantly watching bmx on extreme and spending a fair bit of time at the local skatepark sitting watching, finding this site and just thinking about riding a LOT!,seeing the guys smiling face after doin the decade and thinkin THATS WHAT ITS ALL ABOUT!.Im really wanting to start riding again guys what was it like for the folks on here that picked up the bike again and went for it?, thanks  Ricky

yep i started with buying a few old school magazines off ebay.then got building a show bike. then bought a haro 540 off bill and that was it. back in the skatepark most weeks and really enjoying the riding now more than anything else.

Moose:
After 18 months of collecting old school stuff and standing around like a spare part at meets, I tentitively started riding again. I decided I fancied riding trails, even though I'd never really ridden them before.

I must say, the few times I've ridden, I've thoroughly enjoyed myself, despite taking a heavy fall on my shoulder that prevented me from riding for about 3 or 4 weeks, then as soon as it felt good enough to ride, falling again first time.  :2funny:

Both falls I put down to losing my bottle, more than 6" of air and I piss my pants ;D

weston:
after 20yrs off a bike i started riding again, the only problem is i have nobody to ride with so in the last 3yrs ive rode about 8hrs in total.... hopefully this will soon change
