Facilities

Trackside we will have a burger van and ice cream van on Sunday only, filling station & shop about 50 yards from the track, also about 1/4 mile down the road we have Sainsburys, Pizza Hut, Burger King and some Toby Diner-type place. We should also have toilets, but I recommend taking your dumps elsewhere anyway, and don't be stinking our loos out!!!


It's the Scottish Open Championships and the trophy has never gone south of the border, so come on lads get ya names down for your chance !!!!

RADBMX ID, Number Plate and Weapon of OS Destruction Please.  

REMEMBER!!!  OS or NS Racing is all about fun and trying to stay on the bike. So all you newbies out there who want to have a dabble then dont wait and dont worry.  We're a great bunch of lads.  Whatever physical condition your in or skills your lacking, you'll still be appreciated.  Its all about the CRAIC!!  

If any Midlands, Southern or Northern Riders fancy a trip up to Glasgow then you'll be more than welcome. But prepare for a good haggiswhupping!!  

Full Face Helmet, Long pants and long sleeve jersey and Gloves are minimum requirements. I suggest Shin/Kneepads and Elbow pads. Body Armour wouldn't go a miss either!!  

The Scottish Open is always a great meet, bringing many old and new faces to the sport. Camping facilities are not available or advised at the track - you might wake up in the Clyde. However, they are available about 15mins drive on the banks of Loch Lomond, and they have excellent facilities .

The Scottish Open Championships is generally a busy weekend of people just through curiousity, and will attract a few undesireables. With this in mind, please ensure that you keep your belongings close at all times.

Thanks all!!! Hope to see you on the gate
