Hey Griff - well done for trying to organise this. Before I hit a vote button:

1 Got a rough idea of cost? Or, whats the total hire cost so we can take a stab at likely individual costs..
2 what day of the week are you thinking?
3 what time of day are you thinking?
4 for the 4th option, will there be plenty of lube provided?

ta,

Paul

1 Got a rough idea of cost? Or, whats the total hire cost so we can take a stab at likely individual costs.. not a clue at this stage - they've just asked for numbers, will share more as soon as I get an answer
2 what day of the week are you thinking? saturday
3 what time of day are you thinking? when all the kids have gone home - normal times for rad lock-ins are 9-midnight
4 for the 4th option, will there be plenty of lube provided? if you need it, some of the guys on here prefer going 'old-skool'

punkdSICO · « **Reply #4 on:** March 16, 2012, 09:17 PM »

Okay - just hit the Defo Interested option but skint so will very much be dependant on price..

Very exciting as always very jealous when I hear of the northern mass-ive getting a chance to ride cool indoor parks, without having to wear their cagoules..

thanks agian..

Paul

John, I would have signed up for the dry bmming mate, but the "I live oop north and we have plenty of parks of our own ta very much" won me over in the end

see what I mean paul, spen doesn't even use spit

btw has anyone on here been to XC? like the idea of riding a concrete bowl indoors

Spen69 · « **Reply #7 on:** March 17, 2012, 12:33 AM »

Spit is for the gays

have to say it's an overwhelming response so far

maybe I'd better get my rabies jabs and think about a trek to doncaster

Im in (depending on when), every time i have tried to ride there its been full of scooters, so a Scooter free session sounds good

I've voted not interested because i'm not interested

just thought you needed to know who the voter was before you asked.

pickle · « **Reply #16 on:** March 17, 2012, 08:46 AM »

I hope you have more than luck than i did John, i tried last year but they weren't interested......maybe now it's a bit older and bedded in they are re-thinking

have to find out if they'll even let us in first

and how much they charge

but seeing as it was apparently a flat no last time am keeping everything crossed...

Woz · « **Reply #23 on:** March 18, 2012, 10:51 AM »

Griff it's about time we had a more local trip for some of us radsters, stick me and RAC66 on the list to bud and fingers crossed we can get this sorted.

pickle · « **Reply #24 on:** March 18, 2012, 10:55 AM »

John they sent my enquiry onto the management team and they took about a week to reply saying no. but they did say they might look at doing it later once the place had bedded in. fingers crossed :daumenhoch:mate as we can get a regular thing going.
