I remember Getty the ABA sticker on my number plate for the first time in 1984- was riding a Huffy with Red-Line stickers to be cooler… Always wanted a Mongoose; awesome vid! Thanks for sharing a beautiful trip down memory lane…
Th actual race we're watching looks like a "local" race to me .. .presumably somewhere in California especially with the factory riders present, (CW) Charles Townsend.. Greg Hill, Todd Blaser (Elf) etc
This was the US nationals in Bakersfield ca. I was at this race and remember the track very well. Saturday it rained and flooded parts of the track. Sunday it was sun. Great times.
Interesting to see ELF from back in the day. Also I didn't know that In Hee Lee was racing back in 87, in about 3 or 4 years I believe he was the #1 Am in ABA. RIP NBL hahaha
I'm in 1st place (Nick Liberatore) at about 2 min 50 seconds into the video. #1 blue Super Bowl of BMX Haro Plate. Just after Gork.
I'm 58 and raced in the 80's.....coolest thing I ever did!! RAD!!
Good clean family fun..we need this today..let's BRING IT BACK..
This is the ONE thing that time travels me back to my childhood
Impressive. Considering this is 35 years old, there's some good advice in this video which still pertains to racing today.
Titans were the cream of the crop at the track back in the late 80s early 90s.
Had Stu Thompsons HUFFY white tuff wheels front and rear
Mx 1000 brakes was a great 20' bmx bike...
Such a rad video! Thanks for sharing!
this is rad and totally awesome and safety is the best part of it all
"fun jumps that shouldn't be done during racing cause there's a chance of falling down and getting hurt".......Unless you are Todd Lyons...LMAO!!!!!
totally radical!
golden age of BMX.
Minis are the best-looking bikes of all.
