Hey Dave - Welcome to the site! 
As Glenn said - one more Qlder to the list.
I hope you have deep pockets...LOL. This obsession...oops...I mean hobby can easily comsume you he he
GT's are cool - i just picked up a frame recently that needs an OA dip but should be OK.
About the attachments - if you have Photoshop use the "save for web" function - it drops the file size down heaps.
Hey Waz, how many "DPI" do you recommend for file sizes...LOL
Hey Roberto and the Sausage King - when's the next gathering???
I need my fix and coasty says he can beat Gary in the bunny-hop comp!
Jarvi - see that's why PJ, Goose n Judy never had battle scars like you...elbow pads! Did you tell people you were out-running the cops?
Hey Kurt - We don't forget you! Think of the monoploy you have on all the NOS parts in Tassie! (if you haven't already sourced em all
)
Enjoy the site Dave...

Rule #1.....never have "just one more jump before i go home" it's always the one that bites you.
I've lost count of all the riders who have ALL broken something due to "just one more".
I was talking about this with the oldies at the Vic titles, and we were all comparing injuries of who-did-what during a "just one more" session.....
Never again ;-)

I'm looking to hold to the next Vintage Bmx Coasty Vs Gary gathering some time in May.
Yes probably good advice there Mr.BMX. Have actually done more damage than I thought because I can hardly walk. Something wring with my lower back. Damn I must be getting old.
Can't wait until May Robert. One of the best days I've had even though I didn't have a bike to ride. Next time I might just bring something to ride and I'll just pretend one of the show bikes is mine.

LOL theres no way I can compete with Gary. That boy can and always could jump. I'm ready to roll. 
Brian, calling you very soon.

Hey Glenn - Maybe a couple of bricks and a plank of wood might help...
Does anyone remember what was the final height of Gary's Bunny Hop?
Does anyone remember what was the final height of Gary's Bunny Hop?
Oh man, I think it was around 35-40 inches. Not sure. Bloody good though.
Jarvi,here's my osteopaths number. he usually puts me back together very quickly( as you know I broke my back at south eastern years ago). just mention Christian the bowen therapist and he'll help you out 'cause he's usually booked out 3 months in advance and I think he's running a closed book at the moment, not taking on new clients. he's in glen iris.

We should have a talk sometime. 
For sure mate will prob catch ya around sometime
Thanks Christian. Will keep the number but the back feels better today. A couple of drugs last night and lying down might have fixed it. Not actually sure the back problem was accident related as I think I had that earlier. Just put it down to general aches and pains.
We don't bounce back quite the same any more, hey James! glad to hear things aren't as bad as suspected!
Yes you are right Stu. Can also put it down to not going to the gym lately. Once I get back to regular workouts my back gets better. Using work as an excuse an the moment. Pathetic...
Get a job at a gym then ;-)
Very funny.
Good to see the backs better James. I wake up with a back ache most days and after 1-2 hours ride along the beach it's fine. I think work is the problem!
Oh and who's been watching the countdown spectacular? Sam Fox is on right now and she is hot.
Hey coasty - Those Countdown dancing girls are smoking hot!!!!!!
Happy Birthday Mattblack!!!!
Happy birthday Rohan. Hope it was a good one.

Hey GUN-808, go into your control panel here on VBMX and delete the existing attachments that you've posted.
Also, drop the image size - the "DPI" or dots per inch. In Photoshop you can "save for web" which is awesome for this type of application.
Hope this helps...

Hey Mick, yeah thanks I saw that one. My childhood Quickie is the same as that, The only one I'm really chasing is the Helium.

thankyou Robert for all the fine work you did.
thankyou Robert for all the fine work you did.
Nice build mate. Love Redlines
Nice one. Loving the centre pull brake. And how long is that frame pad? Looks to be about two feet long.
14 inches of safety, Jarvi also probably the dearest component on the bike
those stickers turned out nice, hey Adam?
the centre pull is there because i got a bit tired of seeing the usual DC 1000's.

Very nice build!
Ah, well I was doing the usual male thing of looking down and adding a few inches.
A mate of mine has a chrome version and it felt like the biggest bike even though I had the Hutch which was one of the longest as well.

they did feel like a big bike. back in '82 i had one and it was spot on as i was 17 then. Stu and Jeff Ruminer were over 6' and seemed to be successful on them. probably the laid back seat post angle makes them feel bigger than they really are. amazingly, i am more comfortable on this frame than my 2004 redline 24.
Redline must have got it right in 1981 as that particular frame survived up til about 1988, though by then it was called a 800p.
thanks for the nice replies and i'm well proud how this one turned out, especially after what it looked like before Robert weaved his magic.
Absolutely Stunning Proline.
Thats definately one of the best i've seen.
Thats definately one of the best i've seen.
I have to ask, why does Brisrocker sell his collection, then bid on just about every frame on ebay that comes up?
Strange.
Strange.
hey quicky , maybe because to some of "US" its the building thats the attraction , then the bikes get sold to fund other bikes .
my blue PK sold today for $1850 , that should sort the cash out for another few unfinished bones
i have actually bought 2 frames and sold 1 frame and some parts to "brisrocker" , he's a good guy and bloody honest too . do none of you's know him ? ... maybe JC might ?
