RATTY · « **on:** March 11, 2007, 08:16 PM »

Just got back from the Hayes regional! Blimey it was a great day, not so well attended by our old school crew but a busy, well organised race meet. There was some fantastic racing especially the dads race!! who were racing for a crate of lager, it got a bit rough with one rider who ended up in the ambulance with a dislocated shoulder

The Old school boys who raced were Chris Young, Vinoah, Me, Extreme pervert, bmx 796 and Dave Glendover, we had two other riders in our gate with new school machines.

In race one I managed to crush me nuts

and Steve "Whip me im getting quick" Vinoah took the win.
Steve went on to triple the motos. He is getting better every week and is now becoming the man to beat at our Old school shindigs, well done steve.
Another rapid rider is Chris young who turned up for the meet with a Haro gen 1 frame set and a box of bits

, we managed to build it in time for him to race.

Dave Young "Chrisis dad" brought down his skyway team jacket and a collection of old school stickers a few people on here would kill for, including a Haro Team sticker, about 2 foot long!!! about 20 sets of original skyway Ta frame sticker sets.

I have a few pics but wont be able to post till tomorrow cos I forgot to bring home my cam lead $:-\$

Big shout to the Rad Badbmx boys who were competing in various classes, and Tom who ended up racing the elite Jnr Men instead of the novices, he made the A final and put up a good fight but ended up 6th, still a good result considering some of the competition!!!

Another great days racing, and a truly enjoyable day.

OLD SCHOOL RESULTS
1 Vinoah
2 Dave Glendower
3 Extreme pervert
4 BMX 796
5 RATTY
6 CHRIS YOUNG

You guys did well today and watch for pics arriving from Prembo on here and also on the Hayes Hawks website. What a beautiful day to be out on track so I was glad to get the opportunity for a ride in the Dads race. Great fun and I made the Final after a 5th place on the DK XL 20" and was seeded through after one rider dropped out. 4th in the Final was best I could do on my Matt's Haro cruiser but I enjoyed the experience and that's the first time I've ridden over the Himalayas. Think you'll find Ratty that ExtremePervert is indeed Dave Glendower so not sure who made the other placing. Here's to the next meeting which will be Dagenham Club meeting next Sunday and I promise to come and play with you guys. Humps

Humps I did try to argue my case I will b 35 this year only held a BCL license since JAn after 18 years off and have not trained for it I have smoked 2 many oily rags and drunk to much beer and wine hence I thought I was entitled to enter !!! or at least held a good case my blood it made up of red wine and my lungs are knackered !!! but I am now gonna start doing something now though !!

None the less I had a great days racing and doen well in my own mind ! and it was grreat to see the dads race it was like it was BITD all the dads stiff and ridgid !! anything could happen did one dad hurt his shoulder or something if so hope it heals soon !

A well run day although that is all I expect from the hawks !

Looknig forward to seeing the pics

Regards

Which bike was you on then al ?

Flying_fox · « **Reply #20 on:** March 11, 2007, 09:36 PM »

Good to see some radsters there racing.

The os gate was super cool to watch, most races were so close you could throw a banket over you all in most of the motos.

The dads race was superb, the winner was a ringer, that Baxter raced for years before he became a chef!!!

God my legs ache tonight.
