RRB BIKE SHOW & SWAP PICS

[Rat Rod]

I'm exhausted and severely sunburned on my neck & face, but had a great time today at the show at Don Johle's Bike World.

We had a pretty good turn out today....lots and lots of bikes to be seen. Several RRB members in attendance and some old school BMX hall of famers around too.

The flyer said 10am - 1pm....it actually went from 8am-3pm...ha ha. The day started off pretty chilly (39) and ended up in the low 60s.

Group shot of hall of famers: Todd Slavik, Cash Matthews, Tim Judge, Don Johle and Rusty Roberts.

Thanks to everyone who came out and made it a huge success!

Alright, let me live vicariously through all of you, who brought home something new and what was it?

 

[Houndog]

Does anyone know the pinstriper guys contact info?? PM me please....

 

[Rat Rod]

I paid $20 to have the 3G pinstriped and that was my spending for the day.

I end up running around talking to people all day long and never really take time to look for stuff.

Hey Hound Dog....if you call Don's shop and ask for Mitch (guy giving out trophies) he will give you the guy's number...it's his friend. :wink:

Hey guys. Ive been lookn through the site for a little while now but never joined. I love the site and really want to own a bike that is atleast half as cool as the bikes on this site. Well I came out to the show even without having a bike, but pulling my 2 kids around in a wagon that I hope yall dont mind I had it there since its not a bike. Anyways im just wondering if anybody can post a pic of it if u happened to take any. Thanks in advance. And keep up the good work guys

went and took 3 kids and 3 bikes. had two bikes in the show and the Robinson for sale. Didn't sale it but bought a fork for 5 bucks, GT Mohawks for (really cheap), and pair of rattrap pedals for 5. Due to watching the kids and having to leave at 12:30, I felt like I didn't get to see enough of all the coolness.
Spoke to Steve and couple of others.
Saw your wagon, Ratwagon, and thought it was pretty cool.
It was a good day, kids had fun and I had fun. What more can a man ask, right?
