The Haro rider is John Stockwell, former British no.1 in his age group bitd.

dirtyvans · « **Reply #11 on:** September 01, 2005, 11:32 PM »

billstup · « **Reply #12 on:** September 01, 2005, 11:34 PM »

He was in the pump races I think Rich, or maybe in was the over 35`s open $:-\$

oldmankev · « **Reply #13 on:** September 01, 2005, 11:46 PM »

Some seriously rad pics there mate!

dirtyvans · « **Reply #15 on:** September 02, 2005, 12:08 AM »

haha dirty elbowing darren

the not arsed was more arsed than the arsed!

i think they should scrap the arsed if there is only 5 riders again

the not arsed even had semis!

billstup · « **Reply #16 on:** September 02, 2005, 12:26 AM »

Yeah I think your right Rich, perhaps next time it should be old school or open class.

ORB · « **Reply #17 on:** September 02, 2005, 12:29 AM »

Somehow we need to encourage more of the lesser rider such as myself too, then it would be more fun, if there are a few crap riders then the other more BMX challenged riders would not mind stepping up to the gate?

stuntmaster · « **Reply #18 on:** September 02, 2005, 07:43 AM »

i think a lot of people were put off by how big the track was that and competition between rider`s . i would have done a race if it was a chill out what ever speed you want to and i know a lot more people would have as well .also 3 moto`s put a lot of people off .i wasn`t in the mood to go flying as hols soon and need to be fit for that not have anything broken

dial8d · « **Reply #19 on:** September 02, 2005, 08:13 AM »

i thought that was the whole point of the not arsed class though. Bit of fun, go at your own pace etc

hutch-judge · « **Reply #20 on:** September 02, 2005, 08:18 AM »

I think allot of people in the not arsed should have been in the arsed, It's not like people in the arsed are mad for the win at all costs i only go in it because i race 30+ normally.

Not Arsed as i understood it was for people that have not riden in years or just wanted a chance to roll round. but there was people in there jumping the first doubles etc.

oldmankev · « **Reply #21 on:** September 02, 2005, 10:05 AM »

My decision to ride not arsed was based purely on the fact i went
to B/mouth with Dirtyvans for a practice and watching him fly the
1st doubles and step up, knew i was not in his league. I aint
been near a track in 19 years and at nearly 38 could have done
without the semi as well.

dirtyvans · « **Reply #22 on:** September 02, 2005, 10:08 AM »

all the oldskool ride together at the heywood winter classic, no problem there, all though its hard to get any air the track is super oldskool!

at the end of the day its a race, someone is gona try harder to win it

i do like riding the oldskool bikes though, and building up a new one each year, maybe i should put them in the show and shine and stop giving them abuse

I am gutted I didn't make it to Bournemouth. The pics are ace! Two weeks ago at the Volkswagen 'lebug show' in Belgium I stupidly rode my laserlite pi$$ed on the Spa grand prix circuit at midnight. To cut a long story short I am now off work with a dislocated left arm and perforated left eardrum. Thank god only the nos chrome 7x's were trashed

What a dick
