That issue of BMXA is so classic. With Stu Thomson the cover... That was the first issue I ever bought. And it had Minnesota in it. I can still remember that..

Here is a pic of me at Brooklyn Park out front, I believe Jeff T said he is in the number two spot. My buddy Dave Punt is in the four spot.

Here is a pic by the pool in I think 1981 when I was not thinking straight, I was getting into freestyle. Here is another bike that I would kill to still own.

Since this is a like a new beginning for this thread and I -I have to give respect to the bike shop and it's owners. Dan Ulwelling and Pat Geraghty. They were definitely 2 of the founders of BMX in this state. Great guys too. Dan has passed away but Rydjors keeps movin' with Pat now coming down from the Metro area on weekends to help the shop. I am restoring a CYC MX Stormer for the Rydjor bike collection-a bike Dan always looked for to remind him of the great BMX days at Rydjor.
