Well I am new to the scene, came to MK on the Saturday at the wrong time, mid lake ride and rode round there with a mate, had a beer back to the site, found everything I went for was not there, I went to buy parts. Then I came back on the Sunday with my partner and boy, only stayed for a few hours, I bought what had stuff that was left over after everyone else had their pick. Watched some racing, chated to loads of people. What a great event.
We want to come back next year for the whole weekend, I want to race and I'm 45 and will use an old school bike to do it, I will be racing for last place as I'm sure I'm rubbish but will have a great time doing it.
Also I need to know more about SnS, not to win, my bikes aren't that good or original, but because I enjoyed looking around the others and would like to let people look at my handywork.

last place in the racing is hotly contended!!

You don't need to enter the S&S for people to see your bikes.
Just set up camp and get your bikes out and put em on stands for all to see.  :daumenhoch:

what a funny thread  :LolLolLolLol:

so rich is a bit  :uglystupid2: doesnt make him a  :bellend: :bellend:

i think richs point is theres hundreds of people for the S+S racing not so many. the S+S bikes are  "wantit" when your a racer as rich is you want people to race against and a good crowd to watch, rich has raced many a year in years past, even had a few battles myself with him  :2gunsfiring_v1: back in the day, im sure his comments werent a having a go, more of why did the S+S take more importance than racing, i cant find any race pics which i would like to see so please all put down the  :knuppel2: maybe as someone said previous have the race saturday evening so more can race then party after,
next year rich i might be there if the date doesnt clash, be ready to pick up my  :4_17_5: ha

Talking to a few old school racers on the Sunday and it was basically obvious that they pushed aside away from everything else that was going on that weekend. Lovely trophies etc for the show and shine and for the lads out racing only the top three walking away with a race plate.that came from MK bmx club. Im sure these riders bought raffle tickets, donated on Saturday night, joined in with everything etc so why the snub?

were they all site supporters unlike you, you came to a free event that cost these guys thousands, not to mention 100īs of hours organising, free beer all night, great weekend, and you donīt wanna chip in, raffle tickets mean you have a chance of winning something it doesnīt mean you paid your way for the weekend....its quite simple if you feel left out subscribe to the site and your opinion would be taken sympathetically and may even have merit, but moaning about it is slightly taking the piss, like turning up at a party with no beer, then moaning coz thereīs no JD
