I know of Matt through the air-cooled VW scene but never knew he built bmx frames ! His restoration work is something else 😎

What didn't you like about the freecoaster? I've never ridden one but must admit to being curious about them, so will see if I can borrow somebody's bike to have a go.

I have finally got around to repairing the pad set I bought for this bike years ago, they are a Shimano Racing Components pad set complete with a smaller stem pad for possible mini stems or perhaps much older goose neck type stems, anyway a full set. I was really after Shimano DX pads but they are even harder to find.
The pads were pretty good really, very grubby, but good. However there were several missing snap fasteners and a couple of rusted out ones. Those have now been replace so here is the Hot Heart in its final form:

It's in Japanese and is by a skater BUT this is still a good review of Shiohama, if you haven't already checked:-

The Japanese rainy season has meant no park riding for me this past week but on the plus side, that's given me time to research more parks and I've now got at least half a dozen on my hit-list - a few of which I'm really excited about!! I need to check these out before the summer heat kicks in, so that's the plan over the coming few weeks! :daumenhoch:

As suspected, the Japanese rainy season is casting a dark cloud over this weekend’s race BUT even if that's rained off, there’s a race the following weekend at Tsukuba track, also in Ibaraki. This is a fairly new track, opening in 2023 and is another that I’ve yet to visit. It’s nice to have options! :daumenhoch:

BTW talking of bikes.

I doubt I will ever ride a 20 again. However, I now only have one I could ride or would want to.. My S&M.

Problem is I got a Freecoaster. And I don't like it, just from the quick go I had.

So whilst on holiday I had a poke about and this is what I got.





How much? how does 58 quid shipped grab ya?

Profile want 120 for a Ti driver  :LolLolLolLol:

Will take it to Chichester (ESP) when it arrives and get it laced properly.

No, no bike this time.

Funnily enough I’ve also booked for September. Paid that last year lol. That’s the bike one. I’ve also paid my mate who has an Audi estate to taxi me there and home again .

This one I went on the train. For the first time alone in 17 years. Not easy when you’re agoraphobic tbh. However I had a psychiatrist appointment the Thursday before and he gave me two Diazepam. One for there one for back. It worked. I’m knackered lmao. Not walked that much in years and sort of overdone it with the arthritis. Usually I’d do one day out one resting but I went a bit ham and I’m paying for it now haha.

Needed it though.

BTW it pished down all week so the bike would have been useless any way.
