Old School riding pics - POST YOURS!

I'm sure there are threads like this already, but why not another? smile

This is me on my modified Thunder "bmx 38" bitd. It was originally black and yellow. My second bmx, but my first "real" complete bmx bike.  I had a custom made Schwinn (scrambler I think) that my dad and brother made into a bmx for me before this.

ANyway, at this point I had added a tuf neck, GT layback, aero seat, dia compe front brake (I drilled out the fork to mount it), takagi cranks, sugino chainring and shimano pedals, GT Pro bars, and painted the lester mags white.

Not too long after this was taken I snapped the fork dropouts landing a jump (which caused me to flip over the bars and go flying - that was fun!) and shortly after that I got an 84 GT Pro frameset in white smile

This is probably from 1982 or '83.
