The golden era of BMX was a fantastic time to be a teen, and racing I loved it.

The names in these races are legends. Super cool how every rider would be on a different bike 👍🏼

The era when bmx became huge! Sure miss riding & racing back in the 80’s

That start hill is gnarly

[@lemomadee]

Yeah, that's the way me and my buds used to race

Both Nelson Chanaday & Rich Farside were far better Riders than this line - up also were Mike Poulson & Darrell Young.

Popeye The Sailor man I remember seeing Darrell Young a couple times at ABA events in Texas when he rode for JMC back in the early 80's. At that time I was in the 15x class, he was AA Pro and from California. I was amazed at his smooth, fluid riding style. I also revered the JMC bike, but never owned one myself. At that time I think I was riding a Hutch or a Vector.
