The long awaited 1st part of a 3 part episode featuring Jonathan Sherwood and his incredible collection. I'm going to apologise now for not filming every bike in the collection or discussing every bike in the collection. Time just got away from us while filming and talking about the stuff we did film and talk about!
Jonathan Sherwood was raised in South Africa before eventually relocating to the UK. His collection is inspired by the bikes that he and his friends rode in SA and the bikes that caught his attention in the magazines that he was able to get hold of in SA. No mean feat in itself! In this episode, we talk about those early days of riding the the race track, hitting the jumps and then maybe some street on those bike that designed to do it all. We talk about collecting in the beginning and how it's going now, the bikes and companies that led the march towards rider designed bikes as well as a bunch of other stuff.
In episode 4.1 we'll really get stuck into some of the bikes in Jonathan's collection with lots of gratuitous footage and of course some commentary on said bikes.
Jonathan can be found on Instagram as @sirmerlin and on the BMXMuseum as midschooljon if you want to see more...which I'm sure you do!
Don't forget, you can check out more of the music by the Rodians who's music has featured in every episode of Now That's Midschool, here on RU-vid at @therodians , Instagram with the same handle and The Rodians over on Spotify.

Speaking of which, the next episode should be up on Saturday 17th of June this year with the final installment appearing a few days later, so stay tuned!
