Aaaargghhhh - only got freeview, no Eurosport. May mean I have to ask my brother......

No it's just not worth it.

I can only see it on the sky planner on the Saturday.

Bit of a bummer if I gotta miss the main attractions!

Anyone got info if its on any other days?

Search "BMX" in Sky a-z listings, it is on another channel also, I think. Extreme sports I think. Ad

Rooonga · « **Reply #8 on:** July 27, 2005, 07:19 PM »

I did that Ad, but it's the dirt n stuff from Cologne.

Can only find 1 bmx racing show. (Let me know if I am wrong)

Anyone else had any luck finding others?

You could always go.....
£129.50 on www.opodo.co.uk from Birmingham airport
Fly 06.25 sat morning and return sunday evening......
Can't wait.

The pic on the left by the way was taken at the venue of the worlds this weekend!

Er, a long time ago though.....

Have a good one Geth , say hi to the Fox for me.

He said there was lots of laughs at Decoy , good one by the way.

Geth · « **Reply #11 on:** July 28, 2005, 09:22 AM »

I will do Matt.
I enjoyed Decoy. It was good to feel part of something again. Looking forward to the next national.
As long as it doesn't rain!
The worlds should be good. Guaranteed to be dry!

Hi Geth ,

Just make sure some (Paddy comes to mind ! , bender !) don't get too hammered and try and watch from high up because the tiered seating gets damn steep and we don't want anybody going for a tumble !. I've been a couple of times (Supercross & Super Moto/Guidon Dor) and it seems to get steeper after a few beers ! ( I kept thinking don't trip or stumble or I'm going Ar*e over T1t !) .

Have a good time . I'll see you at Bournemouth.

Matt .

Geth · « **Reply #13 on:** July 28, 2005, 10:54 AM »

I'm only taking a limited amount of euros specifically for that reason!!
What I haven't got I can't spend on booze!
It will be weird watching from the stands. I've raced there a few times but never been up that high in that building!
Should be good if all the Uk spectators can get together.

The Worlds are amazing, I was at Vallet in Frace in 99 or 2000 & the English crowd were great, have a great time Geth, maybe next year you can race them?

With decent bottom-brackets no doubt!!

By the way, check this clip out http://www.exeterbmx.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/videos/movie.wmv which appeared on BMXTalk and see if you recognise any of the lads, especially the blond-haired one!! Humps

Zippy · « **Reply #19 on:** August 01, 2005, 07:44 PM »

Talk about "spot the One" I think they must have been compulsory for that event.

Check out the finals under Race Reports on http://www.schijfbmx.nl/ - click on the age-groups to the left for a download of each race. Good stuff!! Humps

I love sky plus and yet I hate it. Recorded it but it missed the very last race ! It got to the "Set em up" bit and then stopped ! Blimmin live tv over running !
