A few years ago at the philly OSBMX BBQ under the overpass. Tons of old school bikes and I had BMXNJ in the house. Someone was good enough to get a shot of me doing a backyard. My go to flat trick, LOL. Riding and promoting BMX was a large part of my life for a long time. @oldschoolbmxtv @oldschoolbmxfreestyle #bmx #njbmx #oldschoolbmx #oldschoolbmxfreestyle Check it out...
Posted this before but not zoomed in. I always was stoked on the fact that I wasn’t some guy looking for sponsorship alone but was managing my own team. Roger Sullivan was not on HVTT contrary to what this says but Jeff Mayer was. In fact Jeff auditioned to replace Roger on our ramp in the General Bikes parking lot in front of legendary NJ BMX promoter Harry Myers. Jeff went in tour, then recommended me to run the team and there I was, LOL. Anyway, freestylin’ magazine mentions HVTT. Yabba dabba doo. #bmx #njbmx #njbmxfreestyle #oldschoolbmxfreestyle @oldschoolbmxtv @oldschoolbmxfreestyle @oldschoolbmxworld Check it out...
Everyone knows of rutgers NJ because of the black rail…many, many years before the black rail my friends and I were busting street moves there. Here yours truly, flannel in full effect, busts an acid drop off a ledge near the old junk food trucks. Rutgers sessions were always a blast. This is probably early 88 just when General flowed us some bikes. #bmxstreet #njbmx #oldschoolbmxfreestyle @oldschoolbmxtv @oldschoolbmxfreestyle @animalbikes #bmxfreestyle Check it out...
Hillsborough rec center 1987ish. Myself, Adam Stack and Bob Ryer would go there to practice flat and eat dust. Backside walkaround attempt… ah the days of @acdc and @harobmx #bmx #njbmx #njbmxfreestyle #oldschoolbmxfreestyle Check it out...
In the early 90’s BMX was dead. This is myself and Eric Fleming doing some warm up doubles at a show in Buena Vista, NJ where we got heavily stiffed by not putting in who was paying for accommodations at the show. NJ’s first portable box jump. Big and weird but all us, LOL. Rocking my @harobmx bashguard master. @oldschoolbmxtv @oldschoolbmxfreestyle @old_school_bmxlife @oldschoolbmx #bmx #oldschoolbmx #oldschoolbmxfreestyle Check it out...
One footed framestand nose wheelie during a late fall General bikes show. A weird time for BMX uniforms as I’m wearing a thermal top and sweatpants. Trying to look “pro” while being more street. Annnnyway… #bmx #njbmx #oldschoolbmxfreestyle #oldschoolbmx #generalbikes @oldschoolbmxtv @oldschoolbmxfreestyle Check it out...
Go big or go home. Everyone in grade school loved my hair. #not now that I’m in my 50’s and have the same amount of hair….well…I no longer feel weird…even though I still am. Total BMX was an east coast magazine in the early 80’s. And yes this is a lame grade school class photo. BMX Lifer. #bmx #njbmx #totalbmx @oldschoolbmxtv Check it out...
The great thing about being young is that you see no obstacles to anything you want to do. The RampAteria a million years ago. BMX died in the 90’s, the riders didn’t.#bmx #njbmx #oldschoolbmxfreestyle #oldschoolbmxtv @oldschoolbmxtv @oldschoolbmxfreestyle # Check it out...
I actually sorta dug this bike. It was full chromoly and the woman who ran the huffy team sent it to me for nothing! So I ran almost a whole season on a huffy bike. I believe it was Phyliss McCollough who ran that team. Behind is me my Mom, Patricia Middaugh who gave me my nose, hair, emotional support and taught me how to be a decent human being. The era is about 1982-83. I’ve been around the block BMXing…never breaking through in a major way but always on the outskirts lending a hand, like all the rest of us “average BMXers”. #bmx #njbmx #huffy #huffybmx #prolightning for more of the story of an average dude on the huffy “national” team, read “The Average BMXer” on lulu.com and amazon.com Check it out...
Eric Fleming jumps a beat up car while the newly built HVTT portable jump box sits to the side. I was injured with a torn acl for the inaugural indoor street comp at grundys ice skating rink in PA but still was involved. Charlie Huber with the first indoor street comp in our area. As recounted from “the average BMXer” book. The late 80’s BMX scene. #bmx #bmxmagazine #njbmx #ridepabmx #pabmx #afabmx #oldschoolbmxfreestyle #oldschoolbmx #oldschoolbmxlife @oldschoolbmxtv @oldschoolbmxfreestyle @animalbikes @bmx Check it out...
I loved this @harobmx bashguard master alas it was stolen from my garage… anyway, the inspiration to call the book the average BMXer was this, in ‘92 I was the #1 average joe in flat and street in the short lived NBL freestyle series. Sooooo, yea. Ah the NBL…Ellie Stack was a cool woman. Again , google the average BMXer available on amazon and lulu.com. #bmx #njbmx #oldschoolbmxfreestyle #oldschoolbmx @oldschoolbmxtv @oldschoolbmxfreestyle #bmxfreestyle Check it out...
