[TwentyThreeMX]

[Jeff172]

Yeah, Paul and I are both searching for bikes. He did get rid of everything after he broke his back at apple cabin last year.

How you been Crute?

Yeah I was with him when he did that.. I just had surgery a couple weeks ago to fix myself from that day as well. Look forward to seeing him back out there!

 

[TwentyThreeMX]

Not bad Sir what about you? What kind of bikes are you trying to find?

 

[Jeff172]

Gonna get a YZ 125 or a 250F. On the hunt as we speak, got a couple to look at.

Looking foward to chewing up some dirt, been cruising pavement too long!

 

[Jeff172]

Yeah I was with him when he did that.. I just had surgery a couple weeks ago to fix myself from that day as well. Look forward to seeing him back out there!

He just text me that you will be good to go too! Should be some good times!

 

[Ron505]

My buddy has a 2005 YZ125 for sale. It's all fresh from top to bottom. I think he's asking $2700. Girl riden. Let me know if I can put you in touch with him.

 

[Bill480]

Yeah after I read this thread I hit Paul up. Looking forward to this season! Just started working out again a couple weeks ago.

Hey- I've been working out too.... BEER AND BURRITOS. Its been sweet. It'll be really cool just to be able get on a bike again. Funny how things change perspectives. If jeff172 actually makes it to the tracks again- we'll have to throw a renuion party. Now all thats missing is Roost-N-run!

All legends in our own minds...

I've been back on a BMX bike at the skateparks a few times and yep- I back Flipped. Here is one of the first videos that I did with my Go Pro. It's a little boring but hey- I taught someone how to Flip so it's great being 43yrs old and semi-retarded

[Bill480]

After surgery I always turn into more of a twig than I already am

You're crazy by the way. I buried my BMX bike in the attic so I wouldn't be tempted to ride it

Nice video, I enjoyed watching it! Kudos being 43 and doing a back flip,,,,,,,your the man

 

[fmxpaul]

Well thanks man- the videos will turn to MX this spring, with only limited BMX skatepark stuff. I have some wild ideas for the Go Pro and have a bunch of mounts, plus a few mounts that I've fabricated. The Moto-X stuff's going to be fun to watch. I just wish I had iMovie and a MAC. I could do so much more with that.

Jeez, I learned to back flip when I was 35. I do one every year on my birthday on the real jump box. I can't belive this summer it'll be the 9th year. I hope to do one every year until I hit 50. It's easier to flip than to 360. Always has been.

Now if I can just get my WHIPS down correctly without slaughtering myself.... The first three pics are OLD. 2003 Meister, Jeff172 and I raced AX in Toledo. The ramp hit was from at least 2002/03. The one in front of the Pontiac Silverdome was when Jeff172, Billy B and I went to race the Amatuer day the last Pontiac SX race ever held there. 2004. The final pic is from Beans last spring. Damn Whips are harder than they look...
