Advantages: Sit back take a nostalgic journey back to the 80's -remeber your old bmx (if you had one)
Disadvantages: very dated ,and some people may not be able to take it as it is ....

...gear , full face helmets and full bike suits !with Sooo 80'S music in the background! In fact everything about this movie is SO 80's ,just as it should be, seeing as it was made then ., Nicole Kidman is one of the three lead roles . so we have JUDY ,PJ and GOOSE (two boys and one girl) The story begins with Judy working a summer /weekend job in a supermarket trying to save for a BMX , Much to her annoyance, local spoilt brat kid comes along on a nice shiny BMX only to rub it in her face that he only has to ask his parents for something and immediately it should appear ,and ,even before christmas if he so desires! Well if thats not enough the brat winds up losing Judy her job and therefore dashing her hopes somewhat of making some cash and getting her dream Bmx on the road for that summer. Oh and to make matters worse her...

BMX Bandits - Brillant and Legendary!

Advantages: Great chases, good plot, Nicole Kidman's debut!
Disadvantages: Typical 80's, Nicole's perm...

...Where do I start! A legendary film! I used to watch the video of this that I had when I was really young at my Nan's and I found it again on Price I paid - £9.99 It's a 1982/3 film about 3 BMX crazed teenagers who find a set of walkie-talkies that unknown to them reveal a plot by the 'Goons' (bad guys) to rob a bank. 87 minutes duration. Setting: Manly, Australia. The BMX Kids named PJ, Goose and Judy (Nicole Kidman) take the walkie-talkies that they discover and after 'investigation' they find themselves in trouble with the bad guys and are chased on a high speed BMX vs. Car chase throughout the film. The kids report to the police the findings they have made and secretly plot an ambush to get the Goons caught. To do this they round up all the BMX riders in the area and arm them with flour for ammunition. Once caught...

GT Aggressor XC2. What a Bike for the Money

Advantages: Strong Frame and Wheels, Tyres do not let go
Disadvantages: None really!!

...Bought this bike with my work cycle to work scheme. A great buy from Halfords. Excellent speck for the price and a very strong bike. I'm 18st 10 (253 ibs) and in my opinion this bike can handle this weight easily. Great colour Black with like a Pearlesent White, Very good speck components, Shimano Deore derauillers and Sram Truvatic Crank. Hydrolic Brakes and Discs. These will stop you instantly and do tare a little time to get used to or a flight over the bars could come along. These sqeak when covered in Muck and Water for the first few occasions, but when used this disapates. Wheels are Alex DP17 rims, Strong, Maxxis Ingnitor Tyres Grip like hell. Suntour XCR forks are ok for Cross Country riding, Not a great Jump fork, but hey Im no Jumper! (I think that if yoiu are lighter than me you could have some safe landings with these...

On Yer Bike!

Advantages: Great fun, slow, Harry loves it
Disadvantages: Noisy, siren is a pain

...Now, Harry isn't what I would call a daredevil. In fact, he's not into anything that moves too fast or does things that he doesn't expect to happen, pretty much like any 2 and a half year old I expect. So as you can imagine, I wasn't overly thrilled when I found out last year that Harry's great aunt had bought him a motorised motor bike. Please bear in mind last Christmas he was only 21 months old and consequently pretty small and unconfident, but nonetheless, the Halfords Mini Racer Bike was on its way to us courtesy of my parents. It wasn't something we expected to keep for long but funnily enough, its now become Harry's favourite ever toy! The Halfords Mini Racer Bike is available from the Halfords website, and in-store but I can't really say I have ever seen one when I have been into a Halfords. My brother works for Halfords...

BMX XXX PS2 GAME

Advantages: plenty hours of entertainment
Disadvantages: can get anoying when you cant complete missions

...Another ps2 game when i first brought and thought it was crap but actually is quite a good game :) just like other bmx games except you dont have professional riders in it. The good thing is that you can create the character or the rider you call it from been male or female,different faces,hair,clothing and so many more :) Is a BMX game(Bicycle Moto Xross) you do stunts and tricks..the better the tricks the higher the points you get for unlocking new maps and items for your character to wear. Female clothing are very sexy from bikini's to playboy bunny costumes to swim suits and more. There are side missions for you to complete like for example pick up 5 hookers within 5mins and you earn certain secrets and goodies. Also you unlock short video clips of strippers dancing and stuff( note- no sex!) is a cool game with good music...

"Look at my fancy newbig boy bike!

Advantages: great customer service, great quality
Disadvantages: Matching accessories not available

...On Tuesday 27 March, my son turned three making him officially a "big boy" as he reminds us on at least an hourly basis. His dad and I thought it only appropriate to celebrate this graduation into "big-boyhood" by buying him his first "big boy" bike. Kyle is an extremely active and strong boy and the level of destruction he can cause is extraordinary to say the least so it was vital that we found a bike that could withstand the endurance test that is hurricane Kyle and unfortunately, it was doubtful that the Spiderman bike from Argos he had his eye on was going to do the trick. With this in mind I started to do some research online into different options. One brand in particular kept popping up in reviews and newspaper/magazine articles. That brand was Isla Bikes. Now, I am not particularly knowledgeable when it comes to...

Spezialized bmx helmet

Advantages: looks/weight/design
Disadvantages: price

A wheelie good toddler bike

Advantages: Small cheap, good quality
Disadvantages: no brakes

...A child’s first sized pushbike, with stabilisers, squeaky horn and clip on basket. Adjustable handlebars and seat, suitable for children from approximately 2 to 4 years. Manufactured by Universal and costing around £30 from large toyshops such as Toys”r”us. My 2 year old was desperate for her own “big girls bike” with two wheels and stabilisers. I looked at many, most of which were above £50, as I didn’t have as much as that to spend, I homed in on this jazzy little bike initially sold in Index. After realising that they were from the old stock and that they were not in the catalogue, the pleasant assistant offered to go out to the back of the store to see if there were any still lurking in the warehouse. Perfect, one left, and as it was old stock at an unmissable price of £22...

dutch bike hire in London: a real rip-off

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: deceiving images, you don't get the bikes you are paying for

...Last weekend, me and my friends decided to go for a tour of Regent Canal by bicycle, and therefore we looked for a bike hire service in London. Between all the websites we found this one, an appealing website with photographs of fantastic dutch classical bikes for hire in London. The website shows photographs of really nice and stylish bikes which are for rent at a decent price, 25 pounds per day per bike if you hire them for 1-3 days. Even though there were cheaper options we decided to treat ourselves for one day and choose one of these appealing bicycles, just to make it a really unique experience for one day! If only we knew! The delivery process is quite straightforward, you choose a bicycle and they deliver it to you wherever you are in London with a little van. And here we had the first surprise: they delivered to us 3 bikes...

Wheely good bike! (Giant Defy 2.5 Road Bike)

Advantages: Light, Great gears, Good looks
Disadvantages: Uncomfortable saddle, not the greatest wheels

...I have long harboured a desire to own a half decent roadbike. Fortunately my employers opted into the "Cycle to Work scheme" And I purchased a Defy 2.5. Looks This bioke looks good in a largely black and white frame with grey details. The bike itself is set at fairly agressive angles with a nice low handlebar. Frame The frame is extremely light aluminium (10kg total weight) and put together with very neat and efficient welds. The geometry feels right on the bike, although if you are new to raod bikes you may find the handlebar set a little low. My first ciouple of journeys resulted in sore back and stiff neck, however you soon adjust. Gears This bike features a 27 speed Shimano Tigra setup (3 front cogs, 9 rear cogs) That gives you a huge variation. In the highest gear roadsise blurs past you...
