BMX Biker Monthly - I think it did about 10 issues... the thing I remember most about that comp , was the demo by a dutch Mcyle trials rider - he shut the place down on a honda 200.

I never saw him but I did see Andy Ruffell and Charlie Reynolds doing super fast and smooth 360s on the crappy jumps.

Yeah they were crappy (but big) wooden ramps for the race track, just flat banks really. Plus the 4ft wide mongoose 50p bit of a quarter.
andy irwin:
Why do you think I won? I was used to crap ramps lol. :daumenhoch:

did you kill it with a vanderoll? Olympia was quite a trip for you - I think you were in the North West then? Were you on GT at the time- did they give you much? Being sponsored seemed like a big deal back then - but I think it was really exploitation.
