    I came across this site just now while we are having our break before going out again.

    The Vintage BMX Museum

    Para ito sa mga mahilig mag-BMX ngayon at nung younger days na lumupipas na.

    Yung dati ong BMX, parang yung P.K. Ripper na dilaw na nasa site. Brings back a lot of memories...and of accidents that happened to me while I was ripping down the streets and ramps.

    Enoy.

    Ganda. Now I know the history.

    I assembled my own bike twice using my allowance. Saving here and there. And after a year and 7,500 pesos (around 1988), I got my own BMX. Pang freestyle nga lang. Not really a jumper then.

    I sold it 1990 for 3k yata.

    And I bought last year a 2nd hand original Haro Dave Mirra model from a friend. It's built for dirt jumping. Ok lang, I can't do tricks anymore or jump. No rotors, stepnuts, etc.

    I still watch our local X-games from time to time and I'm impressed with the kids today. Ever seen an X-up with a backflip? Kaya na ng pinoy.

    Ride na lang ako from time to time. I'll post some skeds on where to watch x-games here.

    Thanks for the info. I'll pass it along.

    He he he. X-rider ka din pala Kimps.

    Ako, batalla ko P.K. Ripper. Tapos, naka Arai ako na wheels (aluminum) tapos dilaw na tyres (limot ko na kung anong brand). Ang head parts ko nun, Diamondback na naka-rotor. Brake system ko eh Diacompe. Ang tagal kong pinag-ipunan ang pinangbili ko dito. Nag part-time work pa ako, makabili lang ng gamit.

    Ako din, naaksidente na ilang beses. Worst was when I was bed-ridden for nearly a month due to a back-injury.

    Pero, sarap 'dre! Wohoo!!!

    dami ko pa rin peklat sa lower legs..(bandang gitna ng tuhod at paa?) ..sakit sakit pag dumulas yung paa mo at tumama yung pedal..

    naalala ko lang yung batalla (kuwahara?)..tapos, (araya) rims..(shimano) seats..kalimutan ko na yung iba..(ako pa nga nagaasemble dati)..kaya kabisado ko lahat ng parts..sa may Tayuman/Pritil ako namimili ng parts..

    nawala yung BMX ko..ninakaw..simula't nun, nawalan na ako ng gana mag-buo ng bike..(sa sama ng loob)..

    btw, naka-mags ba yung mga bmx ninyo?..sa akin yung gawang fiber glass na five spoke..

    Dito na naubos ang allowance and pinamaskuhan ko nung early high school ako. Natatandaan ko pa unang batalya ko e di pa stainless and medya may kabigatan. I built everything myself pwera sa assembly ng rayos at rims. Sarap magbuo at magupgrade ng parts ng bmx.

    May rotor din ang bmx ko kaya lang di naman ako magaling sa tricks, porma lang.

    sino ba naman sa atin ang hidi nagka sugat and sumemplang because of the BMX.

    I was in grade 1 when i got my first BMX, it was a silver PK ripper with drum breaks (1200.00) . It lasted me until grade 6 when i bought my first mountain bike (3600.00). Then last year i got interested in mountain biking again and assembled one with a GTS M5 frame (9500.00) however it got stolen in our house after 2 months. Now i'm using a GT bike (18500.00) ad hopefully di na cya manakaw. I got a doberman nga pala to guard my house and my bikes

    Kimpoy bike naman tayo, saka yung ibang tsikoteers

    Hindi, de rayos laang. Ilang rayos din ang nabaluktot ko dahils mga kalokohan ko.

    daming sugat nadanas ko sa BMX at skateboard
    he he he...ako din. May tatlo akong pektlat sa may right calf. Remembrance ko yun nung sumabit ako sa barbed wire nung pinatalon ko yung BMX ko over a low, barbed-wired fence.

    I only parted with my BMX when I turned 27. Malulha-luha pa ako ng binitiwan ko na yun.
