BIGANT-DOGMember
Yeah, I’m not proud of it but I used to read it. That’s cause if you were ape-shizz for BMX you read every magazine you could get your hands on from cover to cover)
Dude i still have 90 percent of my mags. Not in the best shape but i got em
BIGANT-DOGMemberohio won the pres. cup. do not know where jersey finished.
update
Jersey not in top 10 and phil got 8th.
BIGANT-DOGMemberGeez all i did was talk about radical rick!!!!!!!!!!!
BIGANT-DOGMemberDamn he is as smoth as ever.
BIGANT-DOGMemberOh bill i know believe me, but that is the way of the collector, But i will say there are some who do it for the love of the sport, Brian P for example, He truly loves all the bikes he has and has helped me out a bunch of times.But there are some wackos out there. I hada guy email me about the rims for sale.Said he had to check his catalogs to see if they were right for his builds. 2 days later he did not want them. So i know there are some dickheads out there.
BIGANT-DOGMemberWhen i say originals i mean one of the first to blow up . Yeah he crashed and burned but to alot of people he was el cid, Hell people will pay 3,000 dollars for crappy areospeeds, why i do not know. But they do. Oh and i do agree about the truth being revealed. But they were good for the time period. I can’t lie I saw martin bust the no handed miami hop hop And i shit a brick. by today’s standard’s it is a poser trick, but back then it was considerd a major thing. Btw I am not arguuing with you 😐 Thisisjust how alot of the collectors think. Hell I am a collector too. only differecne is i ride and abuse what i collect. Hell when i get anither trickstar,(yes i love that bike) i will ride it and not let it sit.
BIGANT-DOGMemberSome people would argue that but(not me i ain’t starting with you) But He was one of the originals And yes there were ALOT of bikes in rad, but what it comes down too is some people are collectors and to a collector that is their “holy grail”,kinda like the gold trick star.
BIGANT-DOGMemberI was at a hoffman contest in 96 (enterd and got dead last) And there was nuthin but love going around. flat guys vert guys etc. Brett me and you went in 97 same vibe. Just hard for me to understand the way things are now.
BIGANT-DOGMemberHey adam I know the seller and to someone that bike was worth it. You have to look at it from a collector’s point of view. It is like a rare baseball card or an original muscle car. Add to the fact that it was the actual bike unchanged from rad, and it sells for that much. But i gotta agree no way i would pay that much for it. (btw i did see that bike in person and it iskind of surreal to see that bike upclose.)
BIGANT-DOGMemberI talked to mike wilson and he explained how things are. Basically street riders would get pissed if a bunch of flatlanders were riding during there time. But forgive me for being old but at some point these contests were all flat street and vert. (in one contest) Where did the line of seperation start? I geuss i have been out of the freestyle loop for too long.
BIGANT-DOGMemberBtw i guess me and the other freaks will have to just “have fun”
I was hoping to get you out there, to be honest some of the best times i had were riding in front of your old house, But i geuss there is no changing your mind. Just don’t throw stuff at me okay :wink:!BIGANT-DOGMemberDamn rodney, I thought it was about having fun and just riding a bike. But i geuss you are “mr. serious” now. Me I do not care what people think or say, i am gonna do what i want when i want, I used to know someone like that a long time ago.
BIGANT-DOGMemberMan this was a good day me e-man david and their dad(my “little brother”)
Oh and btw I think that they could be good board members. Look at the way they are counting money.
