Anyone fancy a trip to chicky between christmas and new year?
-
Is the Pope a Catholic?? Check the forecast and set a date Lee and the world of BMX will descend on Chicky like a plague of locusts. I've got quite a few interested peeps already lined up just waiting for the date. Set it. Your call. Humps

Would've liked to have raced yesterday but got too many family things on between now and 2nd Jan. So no riding for me until 4th Jan.

It's ALL your bl**dy fault Keith. All I ever hear in my house these days is "what do you think of ..... cos I need a XC bike", "look at the travel on these" and similar. It now takes longer to get bikes out the garage than ever before because it's got pit-bikes, 20"ers (nu-school and OS), cruisers, a DH thing and MTB's all over the place and the one I want is always buried at the back!! I hope you're pleased with your work Mr Wilson!! ;) Humps
-
Anyone who's free on Boxing day wants to come along & see the other 'two wheels on dirt' sport we do, theres an event right by my house, come & check it out, Humps must have room for another type of bike in the garage.
PM me anyone that can make it.
Kdub :)
-
I`m trying to make my mind up whether to go Chicksands or Rom, it depends on how much I drink on Saturday :crazy2:
-
Looking forward to sunday,been feeling ill all day today.....in fact rough as f*ck eat so much sh!te yesterday.......need some fresh chicky air
-
eat so much sh!te yesterday.......need some fresh chicky air
..... and need Thai chicken and noodles with pancake rolls and sweet chilli sauce from the van nearby. Yum!! Humps
-
Nearly Sunday, can't wait, might even see if I can pull this off again (Hounslow mid 80's).

M

Me & Hooga will be there about 10:30 - 11, hope it's warmer tomorrow as it's bloody freezing out there today!!
-
ill be alright Paul, I got some new body armour to keep me warm. I just hope I dont need to test it :2funny:
-
10.30 it is then, see you all tomorrow.
Martin
-
Can I just remind any newbies to Chicky that Fat Trax Bedford charge £5 for a day ticket. This goes towards upkeep of the facility and is worth every penny. And the snack food trailer with its Thai food is ace so brings some money with you. See you there about 10:30. Humps
-
Well i'm back from wiltshire now :daumenhoch: just had a once over on the giant,lube a few bits....still feeling a little bit sh!te....i guess that a big christmas dinner followed by christmas pud with 2 types of cream the straight after chocalate cake and cream plus untold quality street all day plus untold cheese and biscuits all washed down with loads of appletizer.....sh!t i think i'm gonna be sick again :crazy2:
See you all at 10:30am,i'm bringing a newbie with me so ease him in gently please.....that means you humps :LolLolLolLol:
-
i'm starving hungry and as weak as fck but have no appetite......whats wrong with me?
still a good day though :daumenhoch:
How many bmxers there :) and did anyone see billy luckhurst jump those triples on his 20inch....how high....and how easy :idiot2: (was it billy or was it charlie?)
Same time next week then lads(and sherrie)
-
Was a great day today. It was Billy Luckhurst who cleared the triples by the way. Reckon you'll have to start a new thread for next Sunday now that you're in charge Lee. :daumenhoch: And when's Chippy putting up the videos?? Humps
-
Now thats the most fun I have had on two wheels in a long time. Being able to hit the jumps at full speed without fear of crashing was mental. I will be well up for next week, the place is awsome :4_17_5:
-
come on boys put up some photos or vid links, i've heard a bit about this place :daumenhoch:
ta like ;)
Ade :crazy2:
-
Looking forward to seeing the pics.
Billy Luckhurst is rad. A proper all round BMX rider.
-
Awesome day yesterday, proper laugh as always, cheers fellas :daumenhoch:
I even manged to jump a few more jumps that I didn't do last time so was well chuffed
The way Billy boosted them triples was proper RAD, he was about 10ft in the air over them :4_17_5:
Not sure if theres much in the way of pics from yesterday as we all spent so much time on our bikes
-

Hoping that Sherine got a few good 'uns and I believe TonydaButcher took some too. Humps
-
Good session again people!
I'd love to see some pics or video, it felt pproper quick out there on the 4X track.
Billy is off the hook, he has to be one of the best riders I know now.
-

You were going proper quick Miles and towards the end of the day you were mental quick!! A blur, so doubt Sherine will have got any pics of you, just a flying red tail. Unfortunately I do know that Sherine & Mark have found that the camcorder stuff won't load onto Photbucket so Mark's bringing a DVD copy next week and I'll see if Matt can do something with it, maybe via PinkBike. Have asked TdB if he's got anything but not heard as yet. Humps
-
Here's some pics. I'm rubbish, I know. :( but they give an idea of the place for people that haven't been to Chicksands.
The kids all went ice skating at Kew last night and young Harley Taylor tore ligaments in his knee and is on crutches. Poor harley, get fit soon buddy.
Thanks for the nice comments about Billy's riding.

I`d just like to see Billy ride other than on a race track, mind you I`m going Corby tomorrow too if you fancy it :daumenhoch:
-
Shame, I'm at work tomorrow.
The boys love Corby, Billy did his first backflip there on the resi ramp.

I never knew you worked Tony, I thought you was a globe-trotting bmx milionare :LolLolLolLol:
-
I work hard Bill! Thats why i'm a gazillionaire!! Guess what I do??
Let us know next time you're going to any skate parks, the boys would love to ride with you i'm sure.
They go Bay66 (playstation) on Tues and Sunday eves.
-
Must be coming up for another session at Chicksands. Where's our official organiser?? Next Sunday looks a possibility. Come on Spillers, set it up!! ;) Humps
-
Chicky this sunday then?
Myself and te harve are a yes and so are alan and james.
Like humps said its well overdue a visit
-
I asked one of the gay-lycra boys from EK to join us but seems to depend on if there's a XC (or X-dressing ;)) event. :angel: Humps
-
I dont think I will be able to make it. I have a busy weekend ahead of me
-
Shame you can't make it Lee. Anyone else joining the gang?? So far I believe it's me and James, Gary & Ethan Godden, Miles Kirby, Lee Allen and Jason Harvey. Not sure about Billstup & Joe or any of the gay-lycra gang from East Kent. See you there about 11:00. Humps
-
What a great way to spend six hours today!! Good to see Jason "gis a ride on yer bike" Harvey there trying out everyone's bikes so he can source something for next time. Gary Godden was ripping the 4X track up on his cruiser. Was damp but good and yes, the noodles were superb. ;) Possible session on 8th March; just waiting for official confirmation from our alternative events organiser Spillers. Humps
-
I second what Humps has said - what a great way to spend 6 hours!!!!!!
our first time & we are certainly looking forward to the next time! (front suspension required though for the next assault!!! I am rather shaken, not stirred!!!!)
James was looking good with his double manuals thru' the triples! Miles was tearing up the 4x track! Ethan & Owen enjoyed hanging out & riding today! Noodles are good just like Humps promised! Good to catch up with everyone & didn't know there was a bike test there today (Jason!!!!lol)
Overall great fun & enjoyed the day!
:daumenhoch:
Gary & ethan
-
It was a superb day today,i know people always say that but for me it was top stuff i really had a good days riding.
I managed to achieve some personal goals today and managed to jump and clear everything(apart from those damn triples)on the 4x track,i felt smooth and in control for once :D confidence is up big time just got to transfer it to the cruiser in 40+ this year :daumenhoch:
As for te harve he must have tried 7 maybe 8 different bikes today all bikes from people he'd never met before,literally every time he came down the 4x track he was on a different machine :D he rode a spank,charge blender,giant stp1,gary grays comencal,lil humps dialled,a flow,a kona,da bomb,some factory polish bike can't remeber name,alan humps bike and then didn't want to leave chicky even when the light faded :LolLolLolLol: nice one kieth ilson thats another hooked ;D
So march 8th then anyone?
Oh and nearly forgot....gary how fckin light is ethans bike :idiot2: 11 Ibs is that possible,jasons pack lunch box was heavier
-
Oh almost forgot to say spillers you were looking good & getting your jump on today, good to see it!! :daumenhoch: :)
-
from what you lot have been sayin and the pics ive seen this place looks superb so be prepared in the future for me to be wobbling around chicksands with ya fellas
the old skool goose has been laid to rest and the new cruiser is raring to go :daumenhoch:
-
Another class day riding in the wood with you guys. I think yesterday the 4X track felt faster than any other time I've ridden there this winter.
I was an especially proud Dad yesterday as my Harry had his first go at 4X at 2 years and 3 days old. Ethan Goddens commentary as we were running down the track trying to keep up with little H was hilarious, Garry your son has one hell of an imagination. Owen Baxter taking over the supervision of Harry was a god send too, my back was about to break running down that hill behind the little nutter!

Just before we left Alex Dick and Chico Hooke turned up and Harry was saying to me "Pa, race Cheek Alex?" (Harry speak for I want to race Chico and Alex, I don't think he needs to set his sights that high yet, lol.
-
Herne Bay or Braintree on Sunday for most of us Glen. Next planned session is March 8th. Humps
-
As the week slowly ticks away I'm thinking Thai chicken noodles and vegetable spring rolls with sweet chilli sauce. Stuff the riding, who's joining me and James for some grub on Sunday?? :D Humps
-
Chicksands sunday club meeting this weekend :LolLolLolLol: noodles and scaring yaself shitless
-
I'm there, if its not raining too heavily.
-
I might make an apperance this Sunday if the weather forcast is good
-
Me ,ethan & mitch camm will be there!!! :)
-
Another good day at the Land of Chicks with a few of the usual suspects there. Started out really bright but then a heavy shower, then sun, then sleet, then sun again!! At one time around 3:30 the area was white with sleet and looked very picturesque but started to get a bit slippery, especially when we did a couple of the downhill runs. Shame our organisor deemed it necessary to be a pit-bitch at Brands this weekend. No plans yet for the next session. Humps
-
Good day - strange weather as Humps said!
Big thanks to Humps for taking me & 'E'! James & Mark - sorry to say you were snoozing on the berm, didn't realise you were sessioning the step-up, step-down! lol
Look forward to the next session!
