I’ve made it no secret that, outside of cars, BMX is one of my biggest hobbies. What I don’t quite touch on nearly as much is my love for nostalgia and damn near anything from the 80s and 90s.
Every so often all three of those interests intersect and when they do (like for today’s Theme Tuesday) in the words of the immortal Samuel L Jackson in Jurassic park; hold on to your butts!
Not all that long ago (well a few years now) Mike ‘Hucker’ Clark redid the shoot over some Toyota Tacomas, to flat again of course.

This isn’t an old photo, but it’s an 80s car. I believe Odyssey’s Jim Bauer is the rider and if memory serves it’s a digbmx photo.As a kid this would have blown my mind because I absolutely loved monster trucks. This comes courtesy of @instadiggles on instagramBMX ended up in a lot of TV shows, and one can only assume this is a set photo…I’d assume this is also a set photo as wellMike Dominguez was a straight ‘g, clearlyLove this Datsun, really wish there were more picturesMaybe the OG Minitruckin’ coalition guys can track it down..Eddie Fiola is without a doubt one of the most well known riders ever, but what’s that in the background?
Turns out he’s had a wicked CRX for a long, long time.
Snakebitbmx (a favorite site of mine) has a ton of awesome articles, photos, and podcasts of nostaliga BMX old school to mid

While pulling this post together I naturally ended up on bmxmuseum multiple times. On that site I stumbled upon a thread entitled `How many are into old cars and BMX‘ and you know I had to repost a couple here.
