Nice shots. I think its my favorite bike you have that I've seen (pics anyway)... I'm all about 70's bmx. It was so real and before the promoter's came along. you know what I'm talking about
J.T.
Looking forward to bringing it to other races in the series!

Carolyn and I have a busy schedule this summer but will be at Brainerd for sure on July 7th. It should be a great time with the new track, bikes, OSer's, and hearing about us Northerners racing experiences.

B. Apold
It is $ick..... I love 70's bikes with a capitol $.....

Is there a reason we have 2 posts running the same stuff?
I'm only asking...

Read the subject line on this one...
B. Apold
MC, you going this weekend to the races?
Guest200901
BRAD- Yes I'll be at Isanti on Saturday and St. Cloud on Sunday
B. Apold
Sweet. Should be there on Saturday.
J.T.
Sorry, will be up North doin' a Freestyle show and promoting BMX as usual to a ton of kids!

Always a great time...have fun racin'!
Paul Springer
Good luck with the JT Show
J.T.
It'll be a great time and here's a little action from a previous show. Here I'm doing a bar endo right into the teacher...the kids eat it up!

In the background you have Tom Haugen who is one of the top riders in the world right now and Trevor Meyer, 3 time X-games gold medalist.



Enough about freestyle...back to racing!!!
B. Apold
You should use Ted's new Sting for that trick.... LOL!!

I'm suprised they let you ride that thing on a gymnasium floor. Those babies are HUGE money and one fall with a pedal or a peg would murder that stuff..... You must be really good.

Anybody remember a guy name Russ Hoad (sp)? I used to race him a lot as an Intermediate. Kind of a Duran Duran looking dude.

What about Theo Alfred? I know everybody remembers him, just curious where he is now. Wasn't always everybody's favorite, but I got along with him and he was a big part of the landscape in the early 80's.
Guest200901
Oh yeah, Theo! We all know him! I think Steve Redelspergergegerger tried contacting him not long ago.

I think this is TA here:

King of Pipeline
That photo is hot.. that's what I remember about BMX. The festivities in the middel of the races or after. Look at all those riders in the background waiting to hit the jump.. This is BMX to me..
Gary Walton
I'm going to remake some of those BMXA MFM jerseys, they were the best. I suppose I should get Oz's permission. But I'm gonna have a yellow one for the summer series. Anybody else?
Paul Springer
Heck Ya, I am in for sure Gary, how about a couple of XXL's... Let me know! You think they might be done in time for Rockford (June 15)?
Jeff Manning
Is Theo wearing rolled down leg warmers in that picture or did he have really fat legs at one time and those are the stretched out socks he's wearing? ^^^^^^

Is that a Swatch watch he has on?
bmxmom
cankles or leg warmers?

the die'n Seragent MN thread... bump!
Gary Walton
John, sorry I didn't respond before now, I was waiting for the swelling to go down. I called Jim Kedinger earlier this year, first time in 17 years and the first thing he said was "hey, I was just telling a guy about that time in Dubois..."

What a legacy!

Team Action Graphics second @ the Dixieland National last weekend.
Paul Springer
Awesome Gary, great job, I am psyched for you!
Guest200901

Mark, awesome job on the videos and 360 track views. Where are you planning on going next? June looks to be the month for racing to start south of town. I'm planning on going to the Faribault opener.

Pauli, great job at both those races. Looking good.
Paul Springer
Thanks Scott WBL, I appreciate it! Rod, Mikko & I are going to be potentially having some Pre-Rockford planning meetings if your interested, I will keep you in the loop!

Hacksaw, here are the contenders from St. Cloud:

Joel Stark-Haws 34 from St. Cloud
Jayson Lindsay 32 from Ham Lake
Steve Stocker 35 from River Falls, WI
Rod Byrnes
Paul don't forget MC in the planning meetings. He will be going, or we will represent him and his mission.
WBL BMXer - aka Chucky
Paul, please keep me in the loop. I'm still scheduling a work trip near Rockford for that week so the Vintage deal is still in my plans.
mikkopeters
Tell MC get off the pot and pack his suitcase and walker. He's going to Rockford.
Paul Springer
You guys need to check out this link, it is super cool but I think Mark, Brad & Rod will enjoy it most.
