Figured I’d change it up this time and post a photo I took. This is at the opening the Joe Tiseo ramp park in North NJ. The rider, who I originally mistook for @gsbrodney is actually @budz_is_broken I didn’t know him then but eventually I would learn he is a staple on the NJ freestyle scene. Newer NJ history of BMX…LOL! #njbmx #njbmxfreestyle @animalbikes Check it out...

I still have this Bad Boy Club hat! Anyway…as you can see I’ve always been a bit of a joker and never that serious… Jay Jones knocks out a model pose while I get warm and fuzzy with the sign to @rickmoliterno ‘s original Rampage Skatepark. The last year of the 80’s and the days when the freestyle industry died. Airwalk shoes, Vision shorts and…fanny packs? #njbmx #oldschoolbmxfreestyle #oldschoolbmx #oldschoolbmxlife Check it out...

As a now “old guy” who still occasionally plays on the BMX, one of the dudes I keep track of who currently rides is @burnsbonedeth I’m sure it has nothing to do with leather jackets, tight pants and an affinity for motorhead…. LOL. 31 years ago, the general bikes team in its last incarnation. Flatland legends Sean Leslie and Jay Jones flank me on my left and right. And I will go down with my AC DC cap damn you all!!! This was a few months before we would get stuck in Indiana and meet future legend @kipbmx of @spacebrotherspodcast BMX is the most niche of lifestyles. Also all hail John Dizz Hicks for making metal and leather cool in freestyle. #bmx #njbmx #oldschoolbmxfreestyle #oldschoolbmx #oldschoolbmxlife Check it out...

Damn I miss this guy. Charlie Huber of PAAFA was instrumental in making the PA NJ scene happen in the 80’s. So many great riders filtered through his comps and he hosted every team out there every summer. Just a great guy. Here he gets coverage with his yearly PA comp in Grundy’s ice rink. You can see Roger Sullivan blasting a fakey on the HVTT quarter and future flatland world champion going OTB with a handstand. Great times in the golden age of east coast BMX freestyle. #bmx #bmxfreestyle #oldschoolbmxfreestyle #oldschoolbmx #oldschoolbmxlife Check it out...

From the first real show I ever did at Clifton Speed Center. Summer 1984. We had our 6’ stick frame quarter and Dan’s metal wedge and went at it. The show was nuts and the crowd was insanely big. Rumor has it that Ralph Sinisi of @animalbikes was in the crowd that day… it was fantastic of Fran from Clifton to have us do that show AND pay us. Just an awesome woman! The bygone days of BMX freestyle in NJ. #njbmx #bmxfreestyle #oldschoolbmxfreestyle #oldschoolbmx @harobmx @bob_haro @vans @vansbmx66 Check it out...
Man this is like over 25 years ago!! Anyway, during the dead age of BMX freestyle, I still had my old HVTT quarter and did drag it around on occasion. This time to the first Dunellen Street Fair in my town. We were a hit and I got in a few local papers. Riding of course a @harobmx master. Good times even though BMX freestyle had gone underground. #oldschoolbmxfreestyle #oldschoolbmx #njbmx #haro #njbmxfreestyle Check it out...
