I think it shows what are small sport we are when one of the best tracks in the country is hardly used  :(

I've had some spare time last week and I went down last Wednesday (gate practice nite) and no one turned up !!!! there was a guy there in a Grey/silver A3 who'd been waiting an hour for someone to turn up to do the gate........

I went there again on Thursay/Saturday/Sunday Evening and nothing.............is it the same at other tracks ?

PROGRESS REPORT...
I rode at the wonderful chesterfield track last week, it has had a bit of maintenance since the last time i went. The lips have been straightened and squared and some bits have had a surface dressing. All in great nick.
Pity the rain of the last few days.
I will be back as soon as things dry off a bit.

Chesterfield is a great track, one of the few remaining 'old skool' tracks that hasn't been ruined by the new style of track design.
There was a well turned out regional race earlier in the year, unfortunately it's a very small club so practice nights can be quite quiet but it's one of my favorites for a session, unfortunately recovering from injury at the moment so having to give riding a miss. :(

This was the first track I raced on when I started racing again in 1999-2000. It was the old track then with the massive drop off in the middle into a really fast right hander. John Hearn had just returned from the worlds where he had finished 8th ( I think) and I was next to him in the final. I was right behind him at the drop off and 2 wheel drifted into the corner cus I was going so fast and a guy came inside me and pushed me off the track, cant remember his name but he used to do fire breathing tricks for the kids at nationals.

The Renegade Bmx crew (fb group) will be at Chesterfield today. They're on a road trip today starting at Manfield, then Chesterfield then onto Bolehills. Woulda been there myself but had an off at a Heywood last week.   :'(
Great weather for it too.  :)

I'll post some pics of Chesterfield later.  :daumenhoch:
