BMX Hawaii Forum

P,

Yeah I remember those guys!  Especially Michael Tyau and Jeff Kang.  I remember one day at cannons Michael endoed on the cement slap at cannons and broke some teeth.  Paul Williams packed him home and I towed his bike.  Didn't michael have a red FMF?  

Life is treating me good.  I work for the Honolulu Fire Dept.  I'm stationed at Aiea right now.  Road bikes huh?  I would have took you for more of a mountain bike kinda guy!  Tell Faye I said hello.  I was working there for a while during college.  I just stopped by TBS last week to check it out.  Not much BMX stuff anymore huh.  I hope that changes when they open the track at Sand Island.

Later,
JK

guys,

these are some crazy nice pics!!

are these scans from old prints?

Mililani,
The old pics are scans from old pics. The Hickam shots are from old slides. I have more slides to post but WalMart scanned most of them backwards and I haven't got around to having them redone.

Aloha,
JK
