Okay i wanna get a BMX again as i miss the scene and having been watching alot of Extreme Sports on Sky Digital i really wanna get back into it again as a hobby

Does anyone her have a bmx ? what type have you got ? What do you do, ramp, street or dirt ?

Also can anyone give me any tips on where to go / what bikes are good at the mo When i was younger it used to me Haro, McCoy & Hoffman bikes, guess thats pretty much changed a bit now.

I've been looking at getting some decent ramps, they look really good and you can build them up, if i get enough i could open up my own park

I had a Mongoose
Sniper think it was? Not exactly top of the range but good enough to hit some jumps and do a paper round on
