Shit maan... me and Asa will be cruising round the UK in a camper van when this is on.

We'll be landing at MK in it though so it's not all bad.

To be fair other than the ride up deans gate most of the ride will be pedestrianised

Sorry Jono but i can't make this , first day of the footy season then im out for my birthday meal in the evening

In2bmx · « **Reply #10 on:** August 09, 2016, 11:08 AM »

As it stands i won't be going

.

My shoulder is still fooked

.

I'll see how it is by the end of the week , i might just drive up and have a couple of pints.

And leave the bike at home.

Retrodan72 · « **Reply #11 on:** August 09, 2016, 11:24 AM »

I'm out too I'm afraid, working on Friday night means I'll be fooked on Saturday, and if I get a train after a few hours kip, as soon as I step off it, I'll need to jump back on it.

Sorry Ali.

Gutted to miss this mate.... Will only just be back in Blighty and with MK the following weekend I think I'd be pushing it with the misses for this one as well $:-\$

griff · « **Reply #13 on:** August 09, 2016, 02:51 PM »

Already got my northern stamp in the passport a couple of weeks back and with MK in less than 2 weeks it's not an option unfortunately

Bigbadsam · « **Reply #14 on:** August 11, 2016, 11:27 PM »

Sorry chaps but like i said on fb a slipped disc is ruling me out of this one.....

Jono · « **Reply #15 on:** August 12, 2016, 10:35 AM »

It's a shame this seems to be the only ride that's on the demise (being the first) I turned up last year and there was just the 7 I'd brought along no one from the forum went! Not even the organisers (due to family issues) so this year I thought I'd give it a go, I know MK is next week but I thought a few of the northern monkeys might have made it, there's about 35 going (via Facebook) but not too many of the guys that kicked it all off on RAD, for those that can't make it sorry to here that , the rest of you try your best it's a great CITY n it'll be a great day no matter how many riders we have , there'll be plenty of photos that I'll post up after for you all to view n not comment

CustardLips · « **Reply #16 on:** August 12, 2016, 10:48 AM »

Me and Asa will be there Jono.

NORTY40 · « **Reply #18 on:** August 12, 2016, 11:11 AM »

I think it's just been unfortunate this year tbh Jono , last year was different as there was no real momentum behind the ride and people werent sure if it was happening etc

I for one think the RADchester ride should have a date in the calendar and im sure next year it will be back to how it used to be .

On the other hand , the 2nd Liverpool ride this year had 18 or so on it and turned out to be one of the best rides out for me and many of the others over the last few years , so bigger doesnt always mean better

. I for one actually prefer the smaller gatherings , how it was at the beginning suits me fine

Have a great day and my apologies again that i cant make it ........ footy comes first for me though as you know

CustardLips · « **Reply #19 on:** August 12, 2016, 11:18 AM »

Yeah we need to get this ride back on track.

Know what you're saying Joff it's not numbers that concerns me the best ride I've been on ever Radport 2013 pissed it down all day about a dozen of us but got to know everyone sat round a couple of tables getting mullered so numbers ain't the issue, this is a RAD ride n shouldn't end up being another Fb ride should be a flagship ride for RADbmx, nobody does rides like the northerners n RADchester should be a defo on everyone's calendar great bars mainly pedestrianised n the very first RAD ride. I appreciate dates are everything but wanted canal st in and August bank holiday is gay pride so didn't want to do that again n miss it out next year I'll arrange it for end of May bank holiday and radbury beginning of May bank holiday so it'll help some out and won't need to wait for MK dates for August ...... Jono organising a ride 9 month in advance !!!! I'll have Griff giving it me soon !!!!

Sorry Jono, this is the only ride I always try and make if I am not on holiday. I only got home about 2hrs ago after nearly a month away so just can't get there bud as my life is in boxes in the back of my car still.......
