Hey - fellas - the Helium that was at Roberto's gathering - the survivor race bike. Do you remember who it used to belong to? Was it Jamie Wiltshire?
Brain fade - think I added Jamie Hales and Mick Wiltshire together to come up with an imaginary racer. LOL!
Been thinking more and I'm 99% sure it was Wayne McIntosh's old race Helium.

Yeh Kurt, I really was so close to throwing it out, I had no idea that there was this underground community of old school bmx peeps until i tripped over JMCGT/mroldskool/Matt on the museum and then BANG, i was hooked, with every waking hour thinking about bikes and my next build, so was stoked when i found another Patterson, looking forward to building the new one

Kurt that Quicksilver is owned by a guy i used to race in the early 80's, Scot Lynch.
He found it at Ashmore bmx track on the Gold Coast as is being riden by a young kid.
Offered him some cash and he yes, i think that's how the story goes.

The back of the plate reads "quicksilver helium surviour" but i think that could be Wayne MacIntosh's plate, he ran number 9 and Invader plates around that time.

Is Scot a member over on Oz do you know?

Scottie doesn't do forums Kurt. He is a member of Nerang bmx club though. He is a great guy. He was a factory SE guy and toured with Bubba and PK when they were here. He told me some amazing stories too.
