As much as I love the dog and duck and the atmosphere I do feel it has almost become the main event at MK
I'm no racer but I do think it's a shame the track isn't used more. I think, if a new venue is found, a track is vital to the event. Even if it just acts as a backdrop to the weekend, it's makes everything feel more bmx'y.

Sixteen thirty-two. What is that? A year?   No, it's your top score on Pole Position.

I hear you

With that amount of people you need to entertain

For me the main part was Friday night chilled with Bob

We had no choice to have it that weekend without MK BMX club or not have the event at all, which was a real shame

All is good, loved the whole weekend

For me the track is still important whether there's racing or not. I haven't personally used it for the last few years but every time I looked at the track over the weekend somebody was rolling round enjoying it. I think it's a good reminder of why we are all there in the first place... BMX  8)  Well I should clarify.... it's why the core of people are there - which brings me on nicely to.....

Does it really need a bigger venue ? Personally I say make it smaller. It's not the quantity of people it's the quality of people. Close the rear field, limit the tickets and only let the cool kids in  :coolsmiley:

I’d love a stripped back version like the the first one I’d been to.

Have to admit, us site tidiers had a cheeky few rags round the track before we left. Proper enjoyed it!

Still a freestyler though  :slayer:
