Bart de Jong
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.

Do you remember the moment that you decided to start collecting BMX memorabilia?

Like most of the world right now, our local city of Glasgow has seen a seemingly constant stream of changing coronavirus restrictions in the latter half of 2020. And, for three weeks in late November, restrictions stopped Glasgow’s indoor skatepark ‘The Loading Bay’ from trading altogether. Never missing out on an opportunity, we decided to team up with them for a build-and-ride video project whilst their doors were closed. This is Modularity.
