Class! I haven't been on a BMX for close to 12 years or more, this is nice to see. Some great memories from Belfast BMX scene 1999 brought me back here. GLENN. Dunmurry Crew.

I remember watching Mikey when I was 11 years old. I was wearing rollerblades, and when I saw mike riding it changed my world. When I went home that day, I threw away my rollerblades. I’m 35 😮now and I quit riding sometime after the marine corps but I still think about riding every now and then.

[@benrawson6684]

Can’t keep him down. So glad Mike Aitken is still here to show the rest of us up.

[@CoolestDuelist89]

I remember seeing him in my Ride BMX magazine & immediately being drawn to his style! I specifically remember one picture of him standing behind his bike giving the horns. Red Fit Frame with a Slayer Sticker on the TT. I thought that was the sexiest bike I had ever seen & It’s always been a dream build of mine!
