A little introduction about John E aka Chin,Was Known to ride to Bearwood from Acock's Green which is on the other side of town just to come and session, A good ride that is. A John E session required his Bmx and Two or few of some Beers.
A good memory of Chin was the trip we made to Manchester to watch the U.K's Top Vert Riders do a Show. Myself, Chin and Don Chromeleone set off in Chin's BMW 3 series, I had the pleasure of being the driver from Brum To Manchester, as Chrome and Chin got tucked into there beer's, As i was driving i noticed the car's handling was quite sketchy reminding me of the trucks in India where you had to spin the steering wheel 3 complete turns before you got any movement in the wheels.
I said to Chin is the car ok and chin would reply yep it's sweet, I thought it's probably just me as it's the first time i'm having the pleasure of driving a beemer and it's the way they drive, A gust of wind blasts the car from the side and just take's it across the 2nd lane into the first lane of the M6 and im trying to hold the car straight,i say Chin is this car suppossed to do this LOL, im sure he said yes no doubt, We somehow reach Manchester and enjoy the show as you would and seen Some Good Vert Riding. Now we ready to head back to Brum and Chin drives us back, from what i remember he was doing well driving back, We reach our homes safe and sound, John Chin Next Day had taken his car to the mechanics get it checked over. LOL the report back was the car was a death trap and we was lucky to be around, From what Don Chrome say's the car was scrapped on the Spot. Next Time You Have A Ride In Chin's Car Ask To See His MOT.
Much Respect To Mr And Mrs John E And Kid's.
More To Come From Chin As I'm Just Finshing Off His Interview, A Must Read. What A Interview It Was. Peace.
Peace And Blessings To Each And All.
Bear Bmx.
