Got to disagree to be honest mate!Some of the comps were ok but some of them were farcical at best.Poor ramps, disorganised, not long enough time for your run, too many nob heads that tagged on to the top riders and thought they were ten men and as for Peter Hawkins, don't get me started on him.Lowerstoft, Alfreton and Washington always seemed to be half decent and I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy Holeshot because it was awesome but that's about it.One thing I think they should bring back these days though is compulsory tricks in runs, something quite basic as well like a fakie or a one hand one footed air. There's something special about seeing a fairly basic trick [by todays standards] but done with style and flair.Just my thoughts.Daz.
Dont think I could pedal that far between ramps anymore
I really miss the day's of the good old UKBFA comps!! Quatre's at each end of a sports centre with a couple of trick ramps!!Great atmosphere's, RAD riding!! Bmx has changed so much over the years, but i really miss the good ol' BFA comps!The UKBFA did Sooo much for the Bmx in the 80's & 90's.... I wanna see a UKBFA COME BACK!!!How hard would it be? there's more willing venues these days, more willing sponsers!!!I mean, how many Skateparks are in the UK now!!A regional, national & International Championships I think it would be great for the Uk Freestyle scene!! If done right!! ..........................Roy Winfeild Diane Winfeild Derek Hymason Roger Atkins Geoff Catlow Pete Hawkins Where are these people??? It's time for a UKBFA re-birth!!!
For gods sake man its 2008 not 1984!
