Old School Bmx Vintage I have hundreds of magazines. This one is October 1978 Motorcyclist Magazine it is cover perfect. Has only read once in 1978.
This is tons of Kenny Roberts, Bob Hannah back then.
This is the October of 1978 they did a huge Article of Bob Hannah and asked, "Bob Hannah Is He The World's Best?". We knew back in the early 1970s. Yup!
Bob Hannah was back in 1974 and 1975 back then he was still racing on his Schwinn. He was still racing his bicycle.
Remember, Kenny Roberts had hanging out with Brent and Brian Patterson.
This is when we raced in Fun Run or Blue Lake. I would get some cool things from the magazine in 51st and Powell in the little shop I think it was called Baja Cycle.
My first purchase was Oakley grips Yellow for my 1976 Schwinn Scrambler from Baja Cycle. I still have that bike right now.
These have been sitting for a while in the attic seriously perfect.
Very light, pretty cool.
Shipped with USPS Priority, FedEx, USPS Ground.
Well…. this is Ken Pliska and way back when we had a little place on this computer…..Roost….BMX…. and we had a bunch of old race bikes from Portland... Chicago…. Florida…. California…. Oklahoma….. Texas…... Seattle….and we thought this is cool…
Cash Matthews, Danny Garcher, Darrell Young, Dino Mattoni, Eric Filley, Dave Archibald, you've always been together because that's what it is…. the second you go oh wait a minute I know that I know that I know….. that's why Bill Ryan and Supercross has been a sponsor for the last long time is like that just like Roger Berg with Uni or Jay Graves by The Bike Gallery those people made us…...
Back then….I had just started BMX in Oregon…..I had what we began in the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, 2010s, and now we are doing the 2024. As a young kid…. I grabbed three number ones when I was a kid…..1982, 1983, 1984.
I'm the older guy... think about this. I put number one plates and that 7 more times. Add that to the old before they had to the three of…. to that makes it up 10 number one plates..
That was 25 years when eBay became a house hold name. We had less then 2 of total pages of BMX that's it.
Well….I am older…...a few of my friends have passed on….. actually….a lot of...are gone now.
I'm lucky….I had a stroke and in February 2016 and I had the best people around me and things were looking good. But…. in the same year….a car hit me….that was September 2, 2016, the year…….well…. not so much….
So….. I'm coming up on 8 years after that car hit me…….. It's almost 8 years….and I'd like to try to put all the extra stuff online because…..I don't need them…..I know it will take time….but I don't care……. I was everywhere….. eBay, Craigslist, BMX forum everywhere…… so it'll take awhile to build what it was. Remember I was running BMX through all of Oregon and tracks thru USA BMX…..
I think I'll keep maybe a hundred full bikes but everything else has to go bye-bye and I mean bye-bye.
I'm thinking that the motorcycles can go now…. that means the Elsinore several and other old motorcycles can go Yamaha can go as well. I'm thinking that BMX vintage can go as well……
I'm not sure if I can let go of the 1966 Corvette the 427 with 41000 original….. because a lot of these things have there been yet I'm thinking I want to keep them but I don't know…you know I still have Thunderbirds, Mustangs, more Corvettes, all kinds of stuff still in storage.
So, another problem from the accident is I can't talk the same way….. I can text okay but just can't talk very well….. even though I'm brilliant that's why it's kind of odd….. do you understand?
So I'm going to try and start listing things but it's going to be awhile so it will take time while you understand right?
I'm not spelling correctly I used to but I'm trying to do things it's going to be a while but you'll understand the way I'm trying to talk okay…...
