Let's do some sweet ass sliding through this BMX classic called RAD. A 1986 right of passage for those who had the passion for all things wheels. Once you retired those primitive four-wheeled strap-ons, it was time to go wheels up on a skateboard or BMX bike. 

In the off chance that you still had all your own teeth, you were probably allowed to experience all 3 of these cultural phenomenons at close range. If not, stand back and pump up the riders cru-ising by. 

We have a young Lori Laughlin improbably paired with the least capable looking BMX rider I've ever laid eyes on, Bill Allen. As well as an obligatory 1980s gymnast (unusually cast as an antagonist) as actor, Bart Connor. And last but not least, Bart's lackeys, a set or complete weirdo twins, Rex and Rod. 

I don't know why I'm writing a summary that may make you avoid this classic. I myself can't stop watching it.
