Stepping it up a gear...

That's very true Trev.

that is what i found. My confidence went when i broke my hand. Then it seemed everytime i rode afterwards i was getting worse and worse. So decided to jack it in and take up the racing. Still miss the ramps and the fun though. But know I'm never gonna be as good as i would like to be.

nice one Trev!  i think you and Rob riding together is a great idea  :daumenhoch:  i also think Robs riding has improved 100%

i'll be honest......i find it so hard to juggle my riding between, Kids, The Mrs getting the hump, not having ANYWHERE at home to store my bike, work and generally feeling fooked!  
i also need about an hour before i feel happy enough to be anywhere near as confident as i did the last time i rode............and last time we rode Creation i got so down about it on the night that i thought i will never get any better the way i'm going, the odd session once a month if i'm lucky is just not good enough!  but i simply cannot fit any other riding in due to the above reasons.........i felt so low about my riding that i did actually think of jacking it all in! THE only thing that stopped me was the fact that my Mrs bought me the Proper frame for Xmas, so out of shere kindness i couldn't sell it  :-\

i'm obviously glad i didn't sell up as i love BMX and even if my riding is Cr@p i will still try to get better even if i can only ride a couple of times a month.

Hats off to ya though mate  :daumenhoch:

I Heard that! I havent touched my bike since the last RAD session at Creation .... in February!  :tickedoff:

Oh well, almost Summer, and I wont have to drive hours to indoor parks to get to ride a bit. Evening sessions - ON

Trev:
wife and kids huh.... they're taking too many good men down.

Rob, you know TwoBob has invited you many times to Charlton. I'm sure you could manage that once a week or even once a fortnight.  Surely your missus can't deny you that. She even bought you a £220 frame....<cough> i mean a £60 frame ;)
You need to tell her that she got you such a great Xmas present, it would be a shame not to be able to use it.

Jim, I'm sure TwoBob wouldn't mind you riding at Charlton too. It's the perfect environment to build up your confidence again. it has helped me no end over the last 12-18 months.

 :LolLolLolLol:  Alex the slight diference being your riding is The Dogs!  where as mine resembles the stuff Dogs leave behind  :daumenhoch:
