he is a member here

do a search for carlo's ramp

 :o

i remember thinking how riders had seemed to have disappeared, but it was probably due to less magazine coverage
or me just buying less magazines.

:idiot2: I had a sppoky feeling that may be the case,dont even know why i thought of it,I think at that time he was 'the' up and coming rider in the uk only behind a number of  'freestylers'(love that old school word)like Craig Campbell,Billy Stupple,Pepi Winder to name a few.....those were the days :Great_Britain: :daumenhoch:
