it had a re-build a few years back payed for by simon tabron i belive i wouldet ride ther myself after about 6 ish unless im with a fairley big group or lots of perants around due to allot of gangs and bullying there
-
Sounds like there is quite a few of us in the Bristol area - we could organise a day touring the local skateparks during one of the sunnier spells later this year (if we get any)
Anyone fancy it?
-
yeah sounds good iv got about 4 relativley close to me and quite a few on otherside of bristol
-
Deffo :daumenhoch:
Wouldn't mind a trip down memory lane :LolLolLolLol:
Bedminster and St George :daumenhoch:
Not sure if you lot are old enough to remember 'Spec' from Bikology - he used to ride in an unofficial half pipe in a shed down by the old Canons Marsh car park ? The shed is now Lloyds Pub !
-
i was born in 82 so anything in that era i prob wouldent no but cannons however i remember due to going down there with my mum bitd when it was a truck stop/bus shelters
-
Im up for St Georges if everyones ok with me joining 8)

Cool - Perhaps look to do something mid / end April if not earlier - weathers normally OK then.
More the merrier - although I think I'm going to be the oldest and crapest!!!

-
You're not wrong there Dodger - TBH I don't care if I'm the worst in the skate park - I get so much enjoyment from riding and learning new stuff that i don't care what others think.
Great to see people getting tricks under their belt for the first time too!

Yeh - I kind of remember Domingguez there and maybe Mike Miranda maybe - I think Fiola was there too - it was a while back :LolLolLolLol:
And I think Spec's was a skater however an awsome BMXer :daumenhoch:
-
So when's everyone up for this get together? 8)
-
i think ewport will be a beter option tbh i have details for motion in bristol the ramp setup is ok but no flat banks sub box's ect to play on for beginers
motion £55ph minimum of 2 hour booking and only on mondays allot of time and money in a small park whar could get bord easy/be out of some ppls depths
let me no what u think.
-
I get the impression Motion is more of an advanced riders location - I had in mind more of a pootle round the outdoor parks - will need the weather for it though.
-
I reckon we should get down the St. Georges park or have any of ever heard of my local? Peg Hill? in Yate, oustside of Bristol but not to far :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:

correct on that one motion is stightley for the big balld ones out door parks are great but as u said the wether can be un reliabale which we need if ppl are coming from miles away.
-
I'm only 40mins away in Cheltenham so easy for me.
Yate :daumenhoch: - had a look without my bike and that bowl looks mental if a bit steep sided!!! Would love to ride it this year (a lot!). Magna13 - you ride it a lot?
