But this time, BMX !
Back to the days of the start of mainstream BMX in the UK... about the same time i started R/C with my Holiday buggy - i was a busy lad in those days
A mate sent me this link, and Ive spent the last hour reminicing about BMX with him this morning....

I remember taking my Tuff Burner to the UK's very first BMX track in Reddich waaaay back when, and being sh*t scared of the famous 'Bomb Hole' the first time i saw it.... soon got over that though when i started racing there, jumping it came the norm. Soon after the Burner, i progressed to a Skyway T/A.. what a bike that was
And for those of you here that know me... it wont suprise you, but yes, i still have that very same Tuff Burner in the garage
I'd still have the Skyway T/A as well, but my nephew 'borrowed' it a few years back and it got nicked... and even forgetting my memories of racing it at Reddich, Birmingham Wheels & Leamington, they are also worth a bloody fortune these days
Hey ho. For those here that remember the Burners and early 80's BMX, enjoy the link
