Any progress?

Let me know, im in Pittsburgh and would come up.

Get in contact with Bojangles , crow & Kiloz...all 3 old school BMX guys . They all have rad connections of a sort .

Old School Show then a ride at Ray's MTB would be rad .

dude, i think you should take the initiative and organize it!  i just volunteered you!!!! 

Hahaha , didn't know you were on here and related . I saw that Haro he did for you . The Dirty Bird flies at night . lol .

I could probably make it depending on the date. I'm about an hour away

Can we pick a date(this year please lol) and location and just have an impromptu meet?
It doesn't have to be a crazy event, it just needs to be a starting point.

Okay here's an idea, my wife and I just drove down to Peninsula, Ohio with our mb's and took the "Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail". It was about a 10 mile ride roundtrip and it was a really nice area. There's plenty of parking for everyone and it's a well maintained area.

Looking at the map, we can start from the parking lot area located next to Szalay's Farm Market (http://szalaysfarm.com/index.html) @ 4563 Riverview Road Peninsula, OH 44264 and we can ride to either the Winking Lizard Tavern @ 1615 Main St. Peninsula, OH 44264 or we can go to a non-franchise place and stop at Fisher's Cafe and Pub @ 1607 Main Street (St. Rt. 303) • Peninsula, Ohio.

Either place we go, it will be about a 4 mile ride each way. So we meet, hang out and shoot the shit and ride to get some food/drinks.

October would be perfect and I'm not sure what date . I'll help all I can and spread the word , maybe even help make a flyer for it . I would suggest it be not just " Old School " bikes but new ones as well , but BMX of course .
