Hi Reece. Nice pics. The pic 3rd from last, I think thats me (135). Should be 1358 but have either got funny colour 8 or it's fell off. Didn't think you could ever show me a pic of a track that I wouldn't recognise but you got me there. Where on earth is it? Looks like a quarry, very stoney, just waiting for a huge JCB to come toddling past. ;D

the white quad was really high spec bitd,profile cranks,super class rims,bullseye hubs,you know the sort of thing,but after growing out of bmx i only managed to get £100 for it :'( to a mate and he only had it for a few weeks and it was stolen.
ive only just got back in to riding this year,only done two races but i cant jump any more on a bmx which is odd because i can on my mountain bike,i seem to be used to dealing with a heavier bike so when i jump on the quad im all over the place
