that looks like fun.....only one old bike though??
i thought for sure all of you would have had one..lol

Couldn't choose which one Bob! Seriously, I only have room to fit one easily in my car and I wanted to ride the 24" today.

Yeah, that is cool, that park looks sweet.. Ride that GT bike like it should be..

My old bikes don't come out to play. They have to stay at home in the warmth. But it was a nice day. I prefer riding my new bike it is a lot lighter and more solid to ride. John

Roberto went all out - he's even riding old school Vans!!

I LOVE seeing these bikes getting a new thrashing! As soon as my Haro's together, I'm busting the fountain gap on Lincoln Rd.

We have to hook up one of these days Meddling.

Be careful. Remember when Dave Freimuth jumped over the fence out of the skatepark from the little concrete quarter in Baco 5 and tore the headtube off his PFT? I love the way old GTs looked but they don't exactly hold up to a lot of abuse.

Jes, whenever you want man - do you bust street?

ah, don't hate on the GTs.
my GT with the single bend downtube still takes a beatin. don't think I could hurt it without breaking myself first.

curious about your graffitti. where are you? we have that same style here in poedunk midwest USA. comes from the local hispanic kids that think it's hillbilly chic or "pretend gang" cool.

It's sort of in the center of this map although it just appears as a buiding site at the moment. Opened in 2000 so the satellite needs to come around for another visit soon.

Camberwell Skatepark

It's in Camberwell, Victoria, Australia which is not known for its Hispanic community. For the people who love useless information, a couple of well known people to come out of Camberwell are the Minogue sisters. One is well known in the UK for a singing career and the other is more well known for who she married/went out with. Julian Mcmahon (from Nip Tuck) and Jacques Villeneuve.

The graffiti writing was probably ripped off from something some kids saw in Grand Theft Auto San Andreas.

As far as jumping fences there , you _really_ wouldn't want to be trying for a safe landing in that 110Kv => 33Kv Electrical Substation/Switch yard in the background.
Even if you somehow manage a safe landing , just standing in the wrong place , wearing the wrong shoes etc you will help a stray Electrical streamer decide that you are a good looking earth potential & use you as a quick & easy path to ground. One ZAP & that sickly sweet smell of burnt flesh.....

Apart from that it is a nice clean safe looking park
