Just to let you know that I'm going to be adding more articles, programmes, race pictures etc to my FB page. There are quite a few 'how to' sections to go up. Feel free to tag people in the photos and correct me on places/dates etc :)  http://www.facebook.com/media/set/'set=a.10150130520960372.404520.895155371&type=1

Christian, I'll put a few bits in a Photobucket album that you can all see but it'll take too long to scan everything, convert files then load them all up to both Photobucket and FB

In the days before formal coaching, I learned to ride by reading stuff like this and watching riders in the flesh who were local to me like Ant Howells, Tim March etc

Both the albums ('scans and articles' + 'Old BMX') are now viewable by anyone that can get on FB. I've loaded them in high definition, so if you can't read the words, you should be able to download and then view that way.

Hubs are SST Racelace , rims could be 7L's but Greg did continue running 7B's when a lot had gone down the newer 7X route  ;)

I'm with Matt on the Araya 7b's and Gen 1 SST hubs. I'm selling up to help fund a new house so will be selling those items in the coming weeks. Gutted but sometimes you have to bite the bullet.
