Totally agree on him being the coolest! I drive about 5 hours to attend the event and it was totally worth it. Seems Nashville is about the same distance from Dayton. I think he’s coming back to the Buckeye Bike Show next year. 👍
Yes! I know sometimes skaters and bikers have turf wars at the skatepark, but as a guy who loves both... it's fun to see when your heroes have such cool stories from both sides too. Love it! Thanks for watching, my friend! 👊
I’m 41 and haven’t road a bike since I was about 12. Never road anything but cheap Walmart bikes. Your channel has made me want to ride. What would you recommend to get that doesn’t need immediate upgrades after assembly. I’ve been doing research and just became overwhelmed by the information and I’m making a decision harder than it needs to be.
What style of riding do you want to do? Learn flatland freestyle tricks? Ride obstacle and ramps at a skatepark? Race at your local BMX track? Cruise around on your local pump track? Casual rides around town or your neighborhood? Recommendations will vary based on the priorities for how/where you want to ride.
I’m looking to mainly cruise. I’ve seen your video on how to choose and I liked the Monza you spoke on. I know 26 would be better than 24 for what I want. I’m very much leaning toward the Monza but I’d like a few more options.
@@jamesstagner5368 The Monza is a great choice as a 26" Cruiser. Some additional options: The Race Inc. RA26-R is on sale at Planetbmx.com for nearly 50% off, putting it slightly cheaper than the Monza. That's a smoking deal: www.planetbmx.com/shop/2022-race-inc-ra26-r-retro-bike-22-0-tt-white-/-red.html I'm not a fan of the "Wow" rainbow color, but the 26" GT Pro Performer is a great option. I have an older one in Maui Blue, and I love riding it. gtbicycles.com/collections/big-wheel-bmx-bikes/products/pro-performer-26?variant=45862872580393 And then if you're able to spend a little more on a complete 26", personally I'd be very interested in the Haro Freestyler: bobharo.com/collections/haro-bikes/products/2023-bob-haro-26-freestyler
@@onis1969 Oh, the guy in the red shirt. I don’t recall his name. He’s just another enthusiast like the rest of us. I chatted with him and his wife for a few minutes. Super friendly and enthusiastic dude, had an enjoyable conversation with him. 👍

Thank you so much. Yeah I was thinking the GT but I don’t like the pink and can’t find another. Love your channel. Keep it up.
@@jamesstagner5368 right on. Thanks 👊
who is the robot behind them?
Thanks for the comment. At risk of making myself look dumb and not getting the reference, who are you asking about?
@@TheNostalgicNeighborhood the guy standing behind you?he doesnt ever move,,eerie
