Title: space invaders US festival day on the green mongoose Z rims Post by: Jim Ratto on May 13, 2008, 17:07:18 pm why everybody assumes we will be invaded from the air I don't know.
no belief in aliens coming up from the soil? Title: Re: space invaders US festival day on the green mongoose Z rims Post by: Jordy/DVK on May 13, 2008, 17:51:42 pm Because the volume of "space" is waaaay bigger than the volume of the earth. So chances are greater that it's 'out there' than 'in here'...
I do believe in extraterrestial life. (chances are bigger that there IS E.T. life, than no E.T life) But I don't think any of that life has ever paid a visit to our planet...

Yeah, like the Supergoose (and a couple of others?) came with them, ended up on Skyway's for a bit but went back to the 36's when I rebuilt it back to the way it came four or five years ago. :) Title: Re: space invaders US festival day on the green mongoose Z rims Post by: Jim Ratto on June 06, 2008, 22:16:22 pm please tell me you arent wearing an aluminum foil hat right now so they cant read your mind. everyone knows that doesnt work, you have to use saran wrap and get it all the way down to your neck But he is wearing a trench coat with little plastic alligators clipped to it.

I had a Schwin Predator in the 80's that I added some Sting parts to. Always wanted a Race INC. looked like this except with red araya rims, etc... Title: Re: space invaders US festival day on the green mongoose Z rims Post by: stealth67vw on June 07, 2008, 05:17:20 am I had a red anodized Race Inc. I broke it at the bottom bracket and turned it in for scrap. My last BMX bike was a 20" Boss USA team model I got from Dave Vanderspeck http://www.mauricemeyer.com/curb_dogs/ in 1988 few months before he died. The first time I raced it I had blue ACS z-rims. I soon learned about unsprung weight and ditched them for some chrome plated Araya's with Bullseye hubs and drilled titanium axles. I sold the bike in 1994 to build my first big VW engine.

John, did you ever come over the hill way back when to a bike shop called Paquette's cyclery in Pleasanton (funny, it was across the way from Original Sam's Pizza in the same parking lot)? They always had a nice line up of Race INC's in there. I used to go in and drool over a anodized blue with matt-finish Arayas, hubs, etc.... I think it had those dumb Oakley III grips though.... those bat wing ones. Other stuff was a midnight grey Diamond Back and a few JMC's (powder blue with gold Arayas was my favorite) Title: Re: space invaders US festival day on the green mongoose Z rims Post by: Jim Ratto on June 10, 2008, 00:48:19 am John BTW I ran into Les yesterday...good to see him.
