Newbie here, from sunny England!

Hi guys and gals,
Just signed up to the site and thought I'd introduce myself. I'm Giles and just got back into bmx a year ago at the grand age of 35! I've been bmx'ing since I was 8 and have always had a bmx but had a rather too long break from them uintil my better half bought me a mag with a free dvd on it last year and I was hooked again. I immediately bought and customised a 2012 Verde Radia, then set about my first restoration; my old MRD Badlander which I've put up here earlier. Since then I've built two more old school bikes which I'll put up when I've sorted the pictures out. I'm signed up to a lot of the English sites but madly, have only just got around to signing up here! Great site and I can see I going to enjoy looking around here! wink
Cheers,
Giles smile

Welcome!

A man who's been trained to ignore pain, ignore weather, to live off the land, to eat things that would make a billy goat puke. In Vietnam his job was to dispose of enemy personnel. To kill!"

I'm signed up to Rad, raleighburner.com, burnerworld, and bmxrewind. I'm mainly on rad and rb.com although I can see myself on here a lot more now! wink
