AAAAAAAAWWWWWWW NUTS!

I missed a point in yesterday's post that I need to bring up today. Some eagle eyed old school coots may have, noticed but in case you didn't, take a look a David Ruz and his nuts.Yeah, yeah. You knew I was going there. What on Earth are those? I was thinking some kind of coaster brake innard. Or a self made little peg, no telling. Anyone have any ideas?

BMX Plus November 1983

I can still recall finding this issue in our local grocery store and being blown away. BMX Plus had a way with trying to make their covers so over the top. And they managed a good one this time. David Ruz getting his hop on while his buddy puts his family jewels at risk. Great cover, great issue.

Always did dig the Rad Gallery's in Plus. This issue was a VS. issue featuring "Dangerous Dave Gianunzio against Flying Fiola." I wonder who won? Eh, who cares. That rear tire grab photo is awesome.

Good to see ESPN has had their hands embedded in BMX for so long. That shot of Richie Anderson and Bubba Hayes is just so "BMX". Fast and stylish, those guys ruled. Also have to give props to two top Pros running front brakes. I had one of my old bikes set up just like John Piant's bike. Chrome, red and black work so good on a bike.
