Found some bike pics of me in 1991!

wookiee · Apr 6, 2013

Having a good old clearout today as I'm moving in a few weeks and found these snaps from 1991...The day I took delivery of my GT Karakoram! And (as it was the fashion back then) the obligatory 1 footed endo, and curtains hairstyle! I came from a BMX background so still used to try and "bust a few tricks" on my MTB's back then! Also found a bike of a Saracen I had around the same time, but it was nicked within a couple of months of me getting it so I can't remember the model or anything much about it! Anyway just thought I would share!

All the best

That might be a Saracen Trekker, think it was the only one to have U Brakes??

Great photos, I'll own up to having curtains too!!

nice one doug. thanks for sharing, that's what it's all about for us and, still keeps us in the man cave 'til sun- down even now.

As an aside...can't be just coincidence...every time somebody puts a snap of 'back in the day' up, parched grass, blue skies and generally summery..

WHERE HAS IT GONE?? generally speaking

I know they weather looked great and I don't think I have had a UK tan like that since back then!

Ah, yep Special Edition does sound familiar, been a great summer in NZ, *ducks behind couch*
