Deano, I had a AWESOME Old School BMX, red with a really sexy chick sticker. Red, tire (or tyre if you’re retarded) walls had the white stripe, six stroke rims and no ad-ons, basic.  Obtained from my first job in Alice Springs High School’s “forgotten” area, and I loved wreckin the town on it.  Unfortunately had to donate it when we moved, Truck and trailer were already overloaded and the boss said no to holding on to it out the window.. went to a very appreciative cause so i"m not sad, but It is missed . . .
