Hey Yall,
I was just thinking today maybe I will have to retire the collectors corner from BMX Freestyler and maybe come up with another section. Its been almost a year ...WOW!! Maybe even past a year since I made a new one. All of the collectors corners have been from members of VBMX. I basicly started that section for all the members here to give a alternative to have your collections showed off in a formal setting. I would not get rid of the archives..they will be there as long as I still have space to keep it up. But if there really isnt a interest then I will take it off the home page because I like to keep things as fresh and new as I possiblly can. As many of you know, I dont collect or build bikes, So this has all been for you. If there is still a interest..large enough for atleast 6 more next year..then I will keep it around.
Thanks,
Keep on Riding!!!

Mark,
I have visited your site on several occassions to view your collectors' corner archives. I personally would like to see an occassional new collection displayed from time to time.
I really like your site and think that the CC is one of the reasons that I would come back to see what is new.
Thanks for all the hard work by the way. No matter what you ultimately decide, I'm sure it will be interesting and many of us will be visiting again as always.

I love the collector's corner. You should definitely keep it up on the site and updated as often as possible. I'd think you would never run out of material either. All of the guys you've featured probably have much larger, or much different collections by now.
If you want / need another collector, I'd love to show off my Redlines. I would just need some time to polish 'em up and take some fresh pictures.

If anyone is like me, by collection comes and goes, buy/sell/trade'ing stuff.
Maybe have a "collectors corner revisted" or something, with updates, or whole new ones with the existing people along with new ones.

I have thought about that Stephen..doing like updates to try and keep it fresh and new. I amlost did that with spotlights too..but they are starting to pick back up again. We from the reponsives it looks like I should keep it around..I was just wanting to make sure. With a new year coming up. You know I like to keep pushing things further along. Re invtent my self all over again..hahaha
Andrew...I am working on learning to step over my bars from a backwards halfhiker into a crackpacker...right now its just a dream trick. but today I was able to get my foot off and lift it up!!! That was Progression!!! I am also learning how to grab my seat in a hang 5 so I can learn to step over my bars that way too. Along with BW Hithhikers and Fwd Hitchhikers...really simple stuff for this day and age...Advanced Hikers are now spining juggling and trubining all in the same trick!!! I will be happy just to roll FWD..hahah
Thanks for the Feed back guys..I will take all Volllenterrss. I have alaready had one member request more info...There could be a new CC in the month of October!!!
Brian... I am ready anytime you are..just let me know when your ready. Okay...
Keep on Riding!!

Yes, another vote for keeping it. I've gone back many times to reference some of the pics in the old collections.

yeah, the idea of revisited would be cool, as i have a lot of additions to my family here too.
i say if it isnt too much work to do, and your happy doing it.... keep it.

Mark,
I don't have a LOT of bikes to show (10) but they are all really nice builds.
I'd love to be featured in it. What do I have to do?
Take care,
Jeff

Mark,
I would also like to take part in Collectors Corner!
Since you featured Joe Vasquez I been checking in from time to time on up dates on Collectors Corner.
Thats how I met Joe Vasquez (VintageBMX & BMX Freestyler) and a few others. Since then Joe.V, a few other guys and I been hooking up a couple times a week to ride at local skateparks etc. to brush up on our riding skills,share riding storys and talk about our collection.
Keep the Collectors Corner!
