I'm trying to find some more people to ride with in my area so I can get some tips and pointers and to have more fun etc. Just curious if anyone around Houston, Conroe, Livingston, Huntsville areas that ride and wouldn't mind a pretty noonish riders tagging along lol. I'm not kid either haha I'm 27.

Yeah south side is all huge stuff tho right? I rememeber it being around when I used to ride at vans skatepark in Katy. Man I miss that place! It was so sick. You ever ride it? Well maybe sometime me and the wife can come ur way and we can play around some and maybe u could show us some pointers. We're laid back people and not little kids lol. I'm just laid off right now cuz of the oilfield, so I'm playing with new toys.

I'm 6' 190lbs and ride a 20" with a 20.75 top tube which is a hair to small so I'll be going to a 21" top tube soon. I can still ride this bike fine tho. Def get some with 9" bars and a top load stem

how old is everyone? i feel like a dinosaur about to get back into this at 32 yo! lmao, still active in many sports and athletic so i'm hoping coming back to bmx doesn't hurt too bad. I just know that I love bikes, road biking in Houston is suicide and really quiet boring, so i'm selling that thing and investing in a entry/mid level bmx bike.
