The Usual Suspects 'Jam for Evan & Family'
Saturday, April 29 at 9 PM
Terminal 1 SkatePark
Melton Airfield,Dalby Road,, LE13 0BL Melton Mowbray
Last week Austin Jackson, the father of young BMXer and Terminal 1 regular Evan Jackson sadly passed away... I've been helping Evan with his riding on Wednesday nights and Austin always brought him to the park. I got to know Austin quicker than most ... he was that kind of man. Friendly, positive, very supportive of this family and Evan's riding ... and always grateful to me for taking the time to ride with Evan.
This jam is for Evan & his family ... and in memory of his father, who died suddenly on duty as a Policer Officer aged only 38. Sam from TRM1 has kindly agreed to donate all takings from the night to the collection being made via JustGiving for Austin's family... massive thank you's to Sam :-)
We are asking for donations to ride ... please try and chip in at least £10 on the night ... if you can't make it to the night and you still want to donate please send £10 to ed209@superexstatic.com ... its for a very good cause

So get those bikes out and over to TRM1 ... have a roll at a great park ... stick your money in ... have a great night ... and most of all help out a great family :-)

Just a reminder that Evan will be there tonight ... he doesn't know it's a jam to raise some cash for him and his family and I'd rather no one mentioned it as it could embarrass him and make it less enjoyable 👍🏼 ... to him it's just a chance to ride as he loves riding ... he's well used to hanging around with us old uns on Wednesday nights to please encourage him where possible and let's give him a great night 👍🏼

Just fired over my tenner Ed as I can't be there tonight due to old age injuris to my knee mate :-\
