Had to leave the ride a little early. Only took one pic. Great time, thanks to all that organized it. See you in the Fall.

I check the WTB section almost everyday, please try and do the same.
You may hook someone up and make some money to buy more parts.

Thanks G for putting this together, John for the food, and all the guys that volunteered for the food.
Looks like even the kids had a great time.
Also, thanks so much to the judges for voting my R & R 1st in pre-80, my Vector cruiser 1st in threaded cruiser and the Nomorea cruiser as nominated to be put in the C4 award class. It was really awesome and I appreciate it greatly.
Congrats to all the winners in the catagories.
The wife was there and very supportive of me, maybe it was because I supplied her with a magnum of white wine? ![]()
Some killer bikes there also, had to be the best collection of bikes I've seen in a while ![]()

What a great time, sorry I couldn't make the ride.
Thanks to "G" and everyone else who helped make this great event happen.
Great turnout, and I was stoked to see some familiar faces, as well as putting a face to a screen name.
Congrats to all the winners, and hope to see y'all soon. \

Re: 2012 Philly Old School BMX BBQ 6/23 (Swap/BBQ/Show) and Ride 6/24 !
Great time again today, we had about 29-30 people out for the ride today. My friend Shawn snapped a lot of pics yesterday, and got some today for me and I'll get them from him and up in the next day or so.
I gave out some more awards today for the riders,so pics and info will be posted on all of the winners.
I do want to say congrats to Freedo for a much deserved Rider 1st Place for his Red Decade since we all know he's had it all of the rides and rides the Crap out of it!
I'm beat and off to bed, once again, thank you to you all for making this a worthwhile weekend. Next Year the BBQ will be another weekend long event !!!! ![]()

Thanks to all involved in organizing and putting on the BMX BBQ!
My son had a good time winning one of the "kids Raffles" and now wants to build his own BMX bike.
Cool to see all the ages of bikes represented!
Hopefully I can make the fall ride again this year.

Big thanks to G for all the hard work had a great time. The BBQ and swap were great and the night time ride was awsome, love that Mr. Chicken. The Sunday ride was nice as well and my 24 Quad got a totally unexpected rider award. Very cool. And as usual all the guy I meet from the Museum are good peeps can't wait to ride again!

I am waiting for the official photographer Larry to post his pics
Yeah yeah, you'll see them in about a week.
Seriously though, just so everyone knows, I was NOT the official photographer. I did take a ton of pics though. It's going to take me a little while to edit them all, but I'll post them as soon as I can.
Anyway, my weekend ROCKED! I had such a good time at the BBQ and on both rides. I got to see a bunch of landmarks that I didn't see on the Philly Ride last year and everyone was really cool. We shared lots of laughs and rode the heck out of the streets of Philly. Saturday night was such a nice night to ride too. It was beautiful out. It was great riding with you folks and I can't wait to do it again. Someone tell the story about the kid who joined us on the ride yesterday. The guys who helped him out get major props from me. That was really cool of you guys to help the little man out like that.
The BBQ was a blast too, despite not selling much or placing with either of my entries. I did bring home a 1st place plate though. I won the Freestyle Rider award with my '86 Redline Prostyler on Sunday, which I was really psyched about. Getting to hang with old friends and meeting a bunch of new ones was definitely the highlight of the weekend though. There are some really freakin cool people on this site and into this hobby. I am so glad I decided to sign up on here and become a part of it.
Thanks to G and everyone who chipped in, whether it be with donations, manual labor or whatever. Your efforts were very much appreciated. Best weekend I've had in a while!
Alright, time to quit rambling and get back to editing pics. Great pics by everyone so far! Thanks for posting them.

Re: 2012 Philly Old School BMX BBQ 6/23 (Swap/BBQ/Show) and Ride 6/24 !
was my first time at an event like this too. It was awesome. Couldn't believe the amount of amazing bikes there... the 24" Trick Star, that 90 (or 92) bling'd out Haro Master bashguard, The Profile Freestyler (how didn't that bike place????)(how didn't alot of bikes place???) and I could go on and on. was glad I got my Quad Freestyle finished in time too!!! Sucked I couldn't do the ride Sunday morning. HAd a gig Sat night; didnt get home till 4AM. Sleep was more important, lol.
thansk to everyone who organized this event. Can't wait till the next one!!

Congrats Freedo!
I want to say (as cheesy as it may sound to some), I notice at these events, that even though there are so many different types of members on here, one thing we have in common is that we would help each other out without hesitation.
From supplying a tube to a rider with a flat, to volunteering with food for the bbq, helping fix a headset on a ride, helping someone with a bike stand who doesn't have one for a bike category, giving "bro deals" on parts........anything no matter how small it may be, means a lot.
I'm glad I'm part of this great group of people.

Big props to G and all the event organizers, sponsors, and attendees. This event gave me a whole new perspective on shows and judging. IT AIN'T EASY! There were some serious bikes there, making some of the categories REALLY tough to judge! It also shed some light on why my RL-20II lost last year. A lot goes into this stuff. Big ups to everyone that entered!
Great deals to be had all over the parking lot. Picked up a couple odds and ends. Sold some stuff.... Great day guys. Thanks very much from fitpays, Chip, Hag, and the rest of the C4 crew! Glad you guys liked the C4 Choice Award Trophy. we will try to make it to more events with trophies in the future!

That pic from the ride with the Rocky Statue is AWESOME!!!!!!!!
Good thinking!
Sorry to have missed the ride - but I had an absolutely awesome time at the BBQ on saturday. It was great to see so many familiar faces and tons of killer bikes! I'm on vacation, so I'll keep it short. But this year was definitely a top notch event. Thanks to G and everyone else on the back end for making it happen. ![]()
