Here's a few of mine

My little brother's original DG Jersey (78 I believe) and Mike Hardaway's Bullseye jersey




My original Bicycle Center Santa Cruz jersey (1983) A Vintage Kawasaki one that Billy Grossi signed for me and Mike King's DirtSlinger jersey (Courtesy Cruiserking)




An early Yamaha one courtesy Dan Goins, a 70s Schwinn one and my prized jersey possesion: my original 1975-76 Webco jersey which was given to me as a gift by my friend Mike Hardaway over 30 years ago

I know you started out asking for T-shirts but since everyone else is posting jerseys, I will get in on that.

Besides, I want those extra bonus points for still being able to fit in them after about 30 years. tongue.gif


Wearing my Ralphs Bicycle jersey at the Gathering in Arizona in March of this year.


Same jersey, LA Sports Arena, 1978 (I think)


This is the same jersey and bike as in the picture below from 1979.

Rick...you would not need all that if you would take off the flak jacket first. tongue.gif
Volcano
Hey Red Baron - Yep...you get the bonus 100 points!!! laugh.gif
(although all you guys who have posted should get points as well!!!)
Those pics are amazing - thanks for sharing.
You've made me want to track down some lesters...
Love those Cook bars. What model Redline is that?
Pads look like they've seen some action. biggrin.gif

Okay, my turn, I posted these before but here is me in 1975 February on a subzero day in KC, MO. Hair is matted as we had helmets on all day to keep warm during filming for a class project. Later picture is fall 2006. Yep, shirt still fits but I did gain 9 pounds in the last 32 years. Darn it!!

Volcano
Tom Hand - great shirt and you get bonus points for still being able to fit into it. laugh.gif
Question...you have your hand on the lever, but where's the brakes?
Awesome plate too!

Tom Hand
Mick, it has a disc brake on the rear. I worked at JC Penney in 1973 to 1976 and in 75, the high end ten speeds used the Shimano disc brake. I got one from a scrapped bike and adapted it to my Webco and then to the DG. It was heavy but always worked well. I have several more to this day in my basement. This shot is my Webco after I painted it white; I rode it until I got the DG later that year in 1975/early 1976.

You noticed the number plate huh? Our bike shop owner in 1975 owned a magnetic sign company too. Those signs were what all trucks had to have to proclaim their weight carrying maximums. We trimmed the edge from a real MX number plate and then vacuum formed our own personalized very lightweight number plates from the edge. We tried to sell them to other BMX guys out west but could never get anyone to ask about them. So, I have one and Mark Poole has one.

Disc Brakes...sweet. Did you get a lot of funny looks when you rode it???
Plate looked interesting...good to have connections to make stuff like that. wink.gif They must be rare now... laugh.gif

Back in 1975 even having a BMX frame got lots of looks! The sport had not evolved yet so no, no one was really sure what things would ultimately end up looking like.

That number plate is very rare. We made maybe five of them. I keep it safe on the bike in the basement hanging upside down covered up safely!

With the new "Vintagemongoose.com" site up, I was wondering does anyone have any mongoose or BMX Products shirts/jerseys to show? huh.gif

Does anyone have any 1st gen Redline jersey's...I'd love to see 'em... biggrin.gif
Hey Riderippers - did you work out how to post your photos? huh.gif
HurricaneHenry
This appears to be the only survivor of the zillions of race shirts I once had. Best memory of this race is we stayed in the same small motel as the Diamond Back factory team. Needless to say I was beside myself having seen Harry, Eddy, Pete, Doug, and the crew in person. Up to that point they had only been mythical images in the hallowed pages of my BMX bibles.



riderippers
unsure if this is going to work.

This is a piece the ABA gave out to all participants in Midwest Nationals in Springfield Ill around 1983-4. There was a tornado at the race and it was shut down for the day at least. I think we ran the following day too long ago to remember. also inthe pic's are my ABA and NBL member cards.

I'll try more, as it seems to have worked!

Local Bike SHop: Freewheeler ; still involved with BMX - opening new track this April in Grand Rapids, MI! (NBL)

Additional photos: SE racing and Maximum race uniforms
riderippers

Volcano, if you gice me your email I can send, maybe you can post for me?

Thanks,
Volcano
Sent you a PM Riderippers! biggrin.gif
I'll help ya if I can, Mate.

SE quadangle - Looks like they had fun at the race! Great photos - thanks for sharing.
The kid in the last pic is probably the wondering why anyone would want "This old junk?"... laugh.gif
Were those parts for sale or just on display?
76 Mongeese
Here's the mongoose shirt I got a few years back....never been worn. I've also got this in an original screeprint still in the B.M.X. Products wrapper.

Volcano
Sweet Mongoose shirt - 76 Mongeese!
Would you wear it to Rockford??
76 Mongeese
Thanks Volcano....if I ever had the chance to get to Rockford, I'd have to think hard about wearing it!
