Then I built the half pipe and dropped racing all together. Switched to Skyway Tuffs etc… THEN Bought a 67 'bird and left the bike outside to be stolen. Oddly, some 15 years later I finally found out who took it… and began replacing it… and am almost done with it. I still need some redline flight II’s and a white Kashmax Aero/GT laidback and some Ames grips. :lol Well my fatass with a correctly working knee would show ya a thing or two around tri-city. #2 in the state back in the day! But really, i always had a blast riding and shit. Nice stress reliever ---
