    Wasn't a BMXer myself as I was a Grifter owner, but my little bro had a few in his days. Reading this thread brought back some memories. Remember they were so big back in the day. We even went to a local sports complex to watch Eddie Fiola and a few other stars of the day do their tricks!!

    He owned these ones:

    i might email a few small local newspapers or echos or metro and see if they would run a little ad!! :-) call it " OLD SKOOL BMX IRELAND" !!

    they could run an ad saying all welcome and if you bring a bmx it has to 1980s only a good point made buy paul , no point in having new stuff i would imagin, as long as its 70s,80s bmx any make or brand from that time that would do it!!!

    id say we would would need about 20 or more to give it a go!! if the paper got about 20 bikes in a photo that would look amazing and people would take notice!! :-)
