I've found this website : http://issuu.com/buissonrouge/docs/rus9210
The problem is you can't download the files but the magazines are fast and easy to read (try the full screen button)
Moley, the links to your Freestyle BMX magazines are on 23mag. It allows anyone to see the cover and contents before downloading : http://www.23mag.com/mags/fbuk/fbuk84.htm

Hi Moley, I just downloaded a couple of your mags for referance and found them invaluable. What you have done is fantastic for the hobby and it's thanks to guys like you and guys that run sites like this that this hobby can exist and grow. What you have done is very appreciated and has made things a lot more interesting with that amount of information available for everybody to use. Great job mate and thanks :coolsmiley:

Thanks Glynnyboy.
I will be uploading more scans at the end of the month.
I will be uploading the rest of the BMX Biker Monthly's bringing the total to 6
I will be uploading the rest of my BMX Racer & Freestyle's bringing the total to 16
Also more scans of Bike Tests, Freestyle trick How-To's, Articles etc, etc.
The Download limit is at 18.15GB out of 20GB. So there is only 1.85GB left before you won't be able to download anything. The site will probably stop this weekend.
Don't worry the download limit resets on the 1st of each month. That's why I'm only going to do my uploads to the site at the end of each month, just in time for the reset.
About 260 people have download Freestyle BMX Volume 1 Issue 1. About 180 of them in the last 2 days. It's a going a bit mental. Must be traffic from 23mag.
kdw712 is scanning another 4 Freestyle BMX mags and 6 BMX Racer & Freestyle mags. Hopefully those will be done by the end of the month and I can get them all uploaded in time for the reset.
That's it then for those 3 Magazines. BMX Biker Monthly, Freestyle BMX and BMX Racer & Freestyle. If we can't find any more of these magazines to scan then they will remain incomplete. If anyone has any issues then LMK. It doesn't matter if pages are missing. If we haven't got a scan of the mag, it is still better than nothing.
It is a possibilty that a complete set of these 3 magazines might not exist, but I doubt it. Somebody somewhere must have them. Don't be shy, you can have them back as soon as they're scanned.
Once all this info is collected it should be a great help to the OS BMX Community.
If anyone want to help scan some mags then I'd appreciate it.
Remember all updates will be shown in the first message of this topic NOT the last. I will post another message in this topic directing people to it, as a reminder.
Thanks

No more downloads from http://bmx-recollection.4shared.com until the beginning of next month (01/03/2008).
I have found a web host and I am trying to start my own webpage to host these files etc, etc.
It might take a while because I have never done this before. I have a total for 5 hours experience now. And for the first 4.5 hours I couldn't get it to do anything.
Anyway, once it is done, I can kick this download site and host everything on my website. No worries about storage space limits and no download limits either.
Its pretty cheap at around £30 a year.
It can also host multiple domains, so I can put other peoples websites on my sites. Not quite sure how to do that put I might buy a domain name and try it out and see if it works. Domains are cheap. About £3-4 a year. And then transfer it to my site!!!
I'll figure it out, how hard can it be!!!!!!!!!
evamedia:
ever thought about packaging the whole lot into a torrent, then everyone shares the bandwidth?
