Is this a Young Farside?

[TideyFamily]

Found this and it looks alot like him. (Be easy remember I am not a native joisian and dont know Rich’s team history.)

[RaidenHayden]

found a really good pic of him racing at the worlds in 82′ or 83′ in a perfect bmx plus I have, he won

[Caveman]

Of course that’s him. Those were quite possibly the coolest uniforms of all time. I remember the rumor was that Brent Romero lied about his age and was racing a younger class for easy wins. Whadya think Rich?

By the way, nice hair. Mine used to look like that too.

Cool… I just saw it on Vintage and thought that guy looked like him.

Heary Leary, and Pistol Pete, who else is in there that is famous?

Wow I was 3!!!!!!!! I have a few Pitol Pete autograph’s from the 90’s at ABA Nationals. Hey Rich there is a nice tribute to Sandy over on VintageBMX. Thats where I got the picture from.

Notice the letters on rich’s plate. B-world nj

Damn, I had forgotten Rich was team mates withe Dave Clinton the legend.
Woa. That is the shit…
Good times to be alive, amazing stuff was happening.

That is a great shot. It looks like it was a NORA cup celebration photo. Was Cindy Ainsworth not on the team then? How about the Brent Romero controversy? That was huge news back then. He was the National #1 ABA Am and they wanted to strip him of the title. How about it Rich? Comments?
