well it seems [alteast in my school] that more kids are starting to take up "riding" and when i say riding, it means they buy an expensive bike and try to feeble little ledges and think theyre tough

luckily enough no, not really big enough of a scene here for a bmx trend but its cool because the few skaters that are real skaters have a bond with the riders so its all good | |

yeah, its like that around here too. you have the mtb to bmx converts (i'm one of them) and some are cool, but some are big fags. and theres also the kids who buy bmx's because theyre trendy as fuck now and just ride them to school and talk about what parts theyre gonna upgrade next. ive been riding bmx for about a year after mountain biking for about 3. its funny because i was riding bmx long before it was trendy or "cool" to ride bmx bikes, and i get these little shit kids who got mommy to buy them an 800 dollar bike so they can be cool, talking shit to me about how im just a trend whore and i just ride because its cool. they then proceed to try and bunnyhop a curb, fail and get a flat. i then proceed to laugh and ride away. GT Sucks. | |

Hopefully a few of them will actually stick with it. Stop complaining, I'd rather ride with "posers" then no one. www.petroliaflat.i8.com | |

Stop complaining, I'd rather ride with "posers" then no one. i wouldn't. ive tried to get along. i went on a couple rides with a bunch of people around my area. we meet up, go to one spot, they ride for about 5 minutes, then sit and talk for about 40 minutes, and whenever i ask if we can move on, all of a sudden everyone has a new line they wanna try, then they get bored and go home to play playstation. i would rather ride alone.

my town Keswick, Ontario is being overrun by ghetto kids on bmx. thy have started spraypainting BMX everywhere, thinking its cool. a few of them are good, while the other think they are cool because they can drop in and ride out of the bowl at out park.

Then ditch them and go ride where you want to if you would rather ride alone why would you ask a but of "posers" permission to go to the next spot. and think of it this way, we were all posers at one point in time! you didnt just get on you bike and become a true bike rider over night, no, you followed the older guys around because you didnt know whats up yet, and you didnt do any tricks because you were new at it and couldnt, and all the spots you follow the guys to were out of you league, mabey your different but i rember a time when i could barly bunny hop and didnt do any thing on street rides because all the ledges were to high, i didnt just pick up a bike when i was 13 and grind down a 10 stair rail. I do think its funny though when kids that have been riding less then a year have a super nice bike, i had a shity bike for the first 2 or 3 years i rode, i started on a mongoose and slowly got better parts when i needed them and could aford them, (alough thoughs two things rarly coencided, i rember riding an old unsealed back wheel as a front wheel for a long time.)
