Yay, worked this time!

anyway, as I said, Didn;t start MTBing till I met Mrs NBT (it was her hobby and she got me into it) but this is me about twenty years ago

Can you tell that this was taken before I started drinking beer "properly"?

Here mine

BMX circa 1984 on my Kuwahara Rhino 3. I only sold this about 5 years ago and split it up - the frame and forks went to a collector in Anchorage Alaska.

Such a funny thread especially when you know some of the folk - yep, I'm talking about our very own Wham superstar Mulletus. 😆 Same goes for rusty, Andy and Simonralli who used to have terrific curls apparently. 8)

Bike #2 - My sister supplied this pic of me a couple of years ago when she found another of father's photo collections in the loft. I think my father saved quite hard for this one - was a birthday gift in 1977/8. I think it was either 6/7 speed. It got ridden on local streets, dirt and building sites. I loved it.

Yodagoat that is possibly the best bike ive ever seen, drum brakes!, rear shock! And for an eight year old!
I had something called a street wolf with all that black plastic stealth bodywork, then a rad rat with those plastic disks that covered the wheels! Need to dig out some photos

Aye, its ace! My Dad bought it for me from Better Bikes, a motorcycle shop that used to be in Edinburgh. I still have it, thinking about hanging it from a wall in the house as an ornament. Did your stret wolf have one of those crazy sound effect boxes on it?
