Hi Gang :)

Always loved to ride. Fondest memories are when I owned my Yamaha Moto-Bike, with 'Preston-Petty' hand grips. Rode down to Dragway Park Cayuga to see drag racing for the weekend.

Broke the front shocks going down a flight of stairs. Yamaha dealer said he had never seen such a thing! Finally broke the frame beyond repair. :(

Jumped over everything I could, rode down ski hills, loved to do wheelies, could go as long as I wanted, didn't even need a front wheel.

I have little kids at home now, a little tough to get out. Hoping to get back into it to re-live those 'glory days' :D

I was riding BMX when it was cool to say 'groovey' and 'rad'

Welcome to bikeforums and mtbiking. There is a large influx of bmx people coming into mtbiking and really taking the scene by storm in the urban/freeride scene. You guys have some serious style :)..
