Hiya Pegger, :welcome to :radbmxsmilie:.
There aren't to many rides near Bonk On Trent, but as you say, you're prepared to travel so you've got Radchester in Manchester on the 24th August, but before that if you put your bike, a tent, sleeping bag, beer etc in the car, get on the M6 and head to Milton Keynes. There, you'll meet up with most of us at the UK's biggest OSBMX show. It's a 2 day event opening at 7am on the Saturday morning.
It's free to enter, everything is paid for using the £10 yearly site supporter funds. ;)
What you get is the biggest collection of BMX porn known to man, you can have a race on the track, you can enter your bike(s) in the show and shine comp. There's a chilled out vibe on the Saturday night where we all ride round the huge Willen Lake - stopping at the pub on the way round. And then, back at the track, there's a free bar in the Dog & Duck.
Now, have I sold that to you, or what?

Too right buddy, life's too short and all. Come along to MK, it's a blast, you'll absolutely love it :daumenhoch:

What date is mk14 mate.

16/17 August matey. :daumenhoch:

Get down to MK. It's a fantastic weekend. Loads of amazing bikes on show, racing, cheap bike parts to be bought & sold, the lake ride, the carnage on Saturday night, and most of all the fantastic people that make it the event that it is, both those that organise it, and the others that attend.
-
Looks like i will attend then.So what do most of you do then.Seems like you show your bikes and have alot of beer over the weekend.Is this mostly a lads gathering or do you take the wife,girlfriend,mistress with you.Just want to no how the weekend goes and do most go for one day or both. ;)
-
It's all down to you how you want your weekend to pan out, also it will depend on your budget to whether you stay in the Hotel or camp at the track?
The track is open from 7am on the Saturday morning, you can arrive and park up and pitch your tent, have a beer as early as you dare (it's a long day), get your bikes out and generally mill about getting to know people and gazing at the amazing bikes on display.
Obviously if you're staying at the Hotel (Premier Inn - Willen Lake) you won't be able to check in until around 2pm Saturday, so you'll need to work around that I suppose.
The show atmosphere mellows down at 6pm where mostly everyone joins the convoy of bikes around Willen Lake for a sedate ride to the pub halfway round (Prem Inn), then a couple of pints there is followed by a ride back to the track for the late night shenanigans at the Dog & Duck, and the very late night shenanigans at the Helipad.
Sunday is the business day of the weekend. There's the show and shine registration from 9ish and the racing heats start (not sure of time). There's a bunny hop comp too, and around 3 or 4 there's the raffle draw and prize giving for the racing and S&S.
Anything else you need to know, just ask.
-
I've just checked Hotel availability mate, and they're all booked up I'm afraid.
Looks like it's camping at the track for you. :daumenhoch:
-
Thanks Dan.That sounds like a cracking weekend.Will be nice to meet up with some old skool bmx'ers and have a few beers and look what you have done and spent on your bmx.Cheers mate :daumenhoch:
-
Some people bring their wives/partners and kids during the day. There are no strict rules as such. If you want to be tucked up in your sleeping bag by 9pm, then that's your call. Others are still going at 4/5am.

Welcome.. Enjoy the site :4_17_5:
