    Ah man, cought your post and it brought back memories ;)

    Nah, I used to bike 15 years ago when everyone and their mother had a BMX.

    Most ppl then were big into racing but my thing was flatland and ~street~. Having said that I'm sure what we were doing then was crude by todays standards.

    where do you go biking on street?
    We used to get a couple of bikers into ramp 'n rail a few nights, great stuff to watch. Really vicious chunks of metal them there things ;)

    I have a shell of a GT Fueler sitting at home (for sale btw €100 ;)). I fully intend buying myself a decent Haro once the exams are over and €500 comes my way. It's been about a year now, but I'm dying to get back into some street riding. Dublin City on Fri/Sat nights is the best craic.

    We used to bike in "de Annes" all the time (years ago). Is that corner near Dollymount still usable ???

    When will BentFork be finished .... The new site is taking ages, what is the hold up, can someone find out and tell us all what is happening. This is going on so long ?????


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 76 ✭✭Vladivar


    Due to peoples lack of interest in Bent Fork i.e noone send me any photos or
    video stuff so the site may not be going ahead. Maybe in a few mouths but thats
    nly if people start sending stuff in.
