A tour of Leroy Maidment's workshop in Poole on the south coast of England and the stash of Midschool gold that he's acquired over the years.
Running his own metal fabrication business, Atomic Welding, everywhere you look, there's BMX items to be found. A daily dose of inspiration to Leroy no doubt, and to any customers visiting the workshop, clear love for BMX. If it seems hap-hazard, that's because Leroy works long hours and has no time for fancy displays and the likes. After all, his workshop is how he makes his living. And when he's not creating bespoke items for his customers with his metal crafting skills, he's often infusing BMX into his work by offering repairs to Midschool collectors like myself and modifications to other BMX riders' bikes. What he can't do with metal isn't worth mentioning!
Leroy is a massive S&M Bikes fan and supporter, as you''ll see in this video but he's not limited to that brand when it comes to his collection. Later in the year, I will be revisiting Leroy to film part 2 with him because is home collection is equally as impressive, if not more so. That's where all the small items are kept along with his videos, magazines, stickers and various merchandise that he as amassed!
