I knew a guy that thought Dorf was a real....ah...little person. I asked how he thought he could fall back and spring right up like that. He didn't know.

Right in the beginning the way the announcer was dressed, that video could've been made yesterday ![]()
It's videos like this that make me laugh when i see guys counter pedaling out backwards. Why not just run a freecoaster? These guys new what was up over 20 years ago.

Heres my General Hustler R.L. Pro and Fred Blood collection. The Mullen board is vintage as well, and thrown in since him and R.L. were buddies and roomates around the time the bikes and borard were released. All Generals are complete, just not currently completed. Tryn to collect one of each model and color from 85-87. Got a good start.

Re: General thread, let's do this. Put em' up
It has been a long time coming but I'm about 90 percent finished with this project. It is it is a recreation of my childhood bike but with a few differences.

That is one of the cleanest yellow Generals I have ever seen. Once I purchased one and had it in the sunshine, the metal flake in the yellow made the bike pop. Great bike with cool old school paint. Don't see many of the yellow ones.![]()

Yeah I've had it since 91 but I had other bikes so I didn't abuse it when I was a kid I would just stare at it in my garage that yellow metallic color was the sweetest color IMO

By the way I love all of the general pics I think sometimes they are overshadowed by haros and gt's but the general were way more reasonably priced bitd
