Title: BADBMX - ALL EQUIPMENT STOLEN
Post by: QuadPaul on September 19, 2006, 10:04 AM
CAN'T believe it, I am totally gutted. But have had a call from the council this morning to say our container was broken into last night and cleared out.

We have lost the Air ram, compressor lights, control box the bloody lot!!!!! :2gunsfiring_v1: :2gunsfiring_v1: I mean what good is stuff to a theif anyway.

We will still be at the track on Sat afternoon for what was supposed to be our 1st winter series meeting and may run some 1 foot start races old school style

Sorry to hear your news mate?

I've got NO time for dirty thieving kunts!  Lets hope you find out who they are and get the opportunity to krack their shins with a claw hammer!

Was it expensive?  Why don't we do a forum whip round to help you out?  We're all family here, if we all bung in a few quid it should get it started, assuming your not insured!?!?!??!

are you insured?
Title: Re: BADBMX - ALL EQUIPMENT STOLEN
Post by: QuadPaul on September 19, 2006, 06:05 PM
We have made contact with the BCF & the council (as it there container) to see about insurance but no idea yet whether we are covered.

All in all it's well over 2 grands worth of stuff, so defo a big set back for a young club just coming to the end of it's 1st year.

Also now found the start gate was vandalised so the council have closed the track until the gate can be repaired 9made safe), so will very much have to play it by as to whether we can use the track on Sat.

We will not be beaten by this setback and, subject to the Council's agreement, will run Saturday using one-pedal starts.  The meeting is for FUN and that's what we'll do, have FUN!!  And show these thieving toerags that we will rise above them.  Humps

Inclined to agree with Rhys but just what do they propose to do with it??  I've wondered whether the air-ram is of the type used to jack up cars for customising for that bouncy lowrider look and if that's the case then all BMX clubs need to beware.  Humps
