Walking the kids to school last year i saw a lad of about 17 smash face first into the back of a transit that had stopped hard but he couldn't cos he was brakeless. His face was a mess teeth and clarett everywhere. It was all i could do to stop myself shouting 'that'll teach you for riding brakeless you twat'.

:2funny:
Schadenfreude at it's best!!
-
Good = more riders getting back into the sport and getting their kids into it as well
Bad = 1. the look of some new school bikes and set-up; and 2. new school riders who have no interest in the history of BMX (you need to know where the sport has come from if you want to influence where it's going).
-
good= old men whinging about younger riders
bad= old men whinging about younger riders
-
oh i lied about it all being good
bad: old blokes making their kids rid retro bikes when they really want a new school ride.
:LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol:

Good Vibes,Good Bikes and Good weather..lotsa sun in brum today :daumenhoch:
-
good
riding the arse outa these old bikes, with top dudes :daumenhoch:
bad
the weather in general getting in the way of above
stoopid high prices on not very rare parts
the lack of mid school purple chainrings
my wheel building skills ;D
-
Good=loads of new riders coming/oldies returning to it.
Bad=chavvy kids asking if I know who invented BMX and then telling me it was Mat Hoffman or Dave Mirra...
-
Bad = brakeless (as said already) :idiot2: kids constantly asking me 1. can i do a backflip? 2. can i do a tailwhip? 3. well what can you do then? :LolLolLolLol: 4. how much did that cost?
Good = Great vibe from all i've had the pleasure of meeting, great support from RAD fookers on here (without it i would've given up by now) seeing guys who could hardly roll in a mini ramp when i first met them, to now getting air out of the Vert ramps! :4_17_5: this place :4_17_5:
-
Bad:
Injuries caused by my body not being as flexible and able to take the knocks as it used to be :'(
No one outside of BMX understanding what its all about!!! >:(
Brakeless muppets! Its not big and its not clever - its gonna end in tears for sure! :idiot2:
Not getting on a BMX sooner :shocked:
Good:
Good times riding with new friends :smitten:
Buying new bits for my bike when I deserve them ;)
Progression :daumenhoch:
Its all good though! Roll on the summer!
-
bad ...working on tues nights
good ...loving the vibe when us oldies get together...burnley was a good day
-
Same as it always was....
Good - riding
Bad - getting hurt
Everything else comes and goes :)
-
Good- getting excercise while riding instead of having to force yourself to go running (boring) or to the gym.
having a laff trying to do stuff on my bike that I clearly cant do
Getting time away from missus/work
Having a hobby
Bad - Having to travel to a park thats constantly in bits (creation ffs)
Corby- am I the only one that thinks its tripe? (apart from the vert)
Naff weather so I cant ride at other parks outdoor more often.
-
I'm not a Corby fan either. Too many collision lines, too much wasted space, missed opportunites in the cafe and leisure area.
I could go on, but I'd best not - I'm in a crappy mood tonight!!!
All that said, it's the best overall facility we have, so we had better treasure it I suppose. I'll be having regular vert sessions there later this year.
-
People take Corby for granted.I ride there all the time and for a while wanted to try other places.......I tried and still found corby the best by far.Yeah the set ups not the best when busy but most of the time its all good and theres plenty of stuff to ride.
Only other place in the midlands i think is creation which when i went was flooded and full of kids and i dont recall seeing much to ride?Corby is far from tripe,i wish i had it to ride in my day.
-
corby is hands down better laid out than creation!
-
good: good
bad: good
;)
-
There is no comparison between corby and creation. Creation is dead unless something is done this year, whereas corby hopefully will carry on to go onto great things. Like I say, we should treasure it ;)
-
good: first n/s ride immenant 8) gooder: meeting new rad kids :daumenhoch:
bad: getting older fast :buck2:
:crazy2:
-
the expansion plans for corby are rad as fook
-
I'll be getting more involved in Corby later this year, I need to start riding that vert ramp before it freaks me out completely..
-
i'll join you bob!
love riding it but can only air it 6 inches :)
-
btw, more involved??? how?
-
Poor choice of words..... I just mean I'll be riding there more regularly. Unless they want to employ me to run the place ;)
-
25k a year
-
25k a year
and the caravan outside?
-
yep pretty much
-
Well thats roughly double what I've earned in the last two years so.............
-
and you'd get somewhere free to live, with a skatepark in your back garden. Just a shame its in Corby really. If it was by the seaside they'd only need pay £15K
-
True :)
-
not as a rider these days but as a dad who takes my boy and his mates everywhere and i have a lot of
experiance of what's the best park, out door or indoor, for our crew, corby indoor hands down,
that park is the bollocks :daumenhoch: outdoor, only one park rom skatepark but coming close, redditch
outdoor park, that place is amazing :)
-
Just my opinion that I dont like corby very much.I go there from time to time but I find it hard work.Depends what you get used to.For me, a park that has very few 1/4s is not much use 'cause I cant do tech stuff like tire taps etc.I'm a fan of Redditch but being outdoor and wood its dependant on weather.Its been resurfaced by the way. I keep promising myself that I'm going to get to other places but never get round to it- rom (after a 25 yr gap),rampworx. I went to bay 66 last year.It was ok but I'm not in a hurry to go back.
-
good. the people i have met thru bmx
bad. slamming and not being able to ride, always wanting to change my bike, never going to woodward, running out of pizza, running out of peanut butter
-
Peanut butter ! :buck2: That is really bad
-
ian, you'd love bar hill mate (outdoors off a14)
