Name: Alex Leech
Hometown: Oxford, England
Started riding BMX in: 1981
Number of bikes in the collection: Maybe 20 completes and another 20 frames
Do you have any other brand of BMX bike in your collection other than an S&M?
Alex Leech: I have one BMX that’s not S&M; a Haro “84 Sport”. I had one in 1984 so I wanted to get another one. The one I used to have was a USA made Gen2 Sport. I rode it for ages and it broke many times. Unfortunately, I have no clue where it ended up. The one I have now is a Gen3, so not exactly the same as my old one. It isn’t built the same as I rode mine but it’s got a few references to my old bike.

Manchester Mini-Trip! December 2023 by Niek Kimmann
Nachdem wir bereits eine Fotogallery vom Heavy Birthday Jam im Sportgarten Bremen auf freedombmx.de hatten, folgt heute die Bewegtbildberichterstattung von Arne Knatterts und Fabian Bongers Geburtstagssause.
Owain Clegg drove 9 hours from Chester to Braintree (and back) all in one day, just to get the open loop ticked off his Bmx bucket list. We got the entire session on film... check it out in this episode of 'In The Barn'
