Most of these photos were taken by my mum on two seperate days, on one of these days there is a group photo with the riders here and my cousin Brad, Checkers, Reece, Larry and another Brad who used to ride a purple Big Daddy from my memory but I can't seem to find it. I also have/had one of Vinnie doing a bar ride and some of the skatepark and dirt jumps if I am not wrong.
Riders1: Not sure who is far left, then there is Neil, Brad against the fence, Chris, some random kid and another rider just in frame
Riders2: Campbell, me against the fence, not sure again and Neil
Me Steamrollin': This was one of my last visits to Cherrybrook and I never really met everyone, I am not sure who this is
Well maybe some of you guys can recognise yourselfs here, I will post more photos if I find any, peace.

That's awesome man! Thanks!
The guy in the first pic with the red bike is Neil. He works for whoever distros Demolition I think(?).
He comes to Dulwich Hill skatepark and rides with his kid sometimes. He's a custom S&M Randy Brown now with 2 pegs. Still rides flatland a bit on the court there. He's a good guy.

In the pic where Scottie is doing a steamroller Campbell Lee is on the left in a white shirt with glasses. He came to Summer Hill a few weeks ago, so did Vinnie Pugh who's in other pic. Both guys still ride and do it really well!

The rider on the left is Paul. He moved to Brisbane.
Campbell and myself got to catch up with him in Dec 2005 at Stewart Munro's Back2Basics jam.

Chrome all over, tiny bars, brakes all round, sprockets you could serve a pizza on and shin pads as far as the eye can see,... you's all look like you came straight 'outta da 90's.'

Love it man. Love it.
edit: OMG, is that a Converse React cap? I had some of those shoes until they fell off my feet in tatters.

Hahaaaa, they were some teeny tiny handlebars for sure, before these bars I was riding with Haro kneesavers. The bars and stem must have come off a Dyno Compe or Zone I believe, I can't even remember where I got most of the parts from that bike except for the frame and GT pedals which my cousin Brad gave me.
I have loads of photos of me riding flatland and other bmx stuff around this era and for some reason I am wearing hats all the time, and good spottin' cause it looks like everyone here is too! Must have been a 90s thing I guess <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt="" title="Laughing" /><!-- s --> It is a React hat and I believe they are converse shoes too, I do remember them falling apart real quick especially doing scuffing tricks. I actually still have this hat and the shinpads, "Busline Minis" I think they were called, not sure why I kept that stuff but probably as a reminder of back in the day.
I am 95% sure I have a photo of everyone in one shot there that day somewhere, and I know I had a photo of Vinnie doing a bar ride but I can't seem to find it just yet, but if I do I will post it up here. I used to live about 5 minutes from Heffron Park which had something like 12 or so netball courts (and netball tournaments on the weekend [Image Can Not Be Found]), and there was a metal halfpipe with one side 8 feet and the other must have been 10 or so with a foot of Vert. I am sure I saw Mike Daily and his crew there one day, every now and then some known names would ride that halfpipe.
I used to ride with JR and Alwin at Heffron park, this is going back sometime now when I was about 13 and these guys must have been close to 30, and now I am close to 30 so I got no idea if these guys ride anymore though. I could throw allot of names out there but allot of riders were "come and go" flatlanders like myself I guess [Image Can Not Be Found]
