BMX Action Bike article.

This may or may not be a bit of a long shot but it's worth a try.
I just remembered that an issue of BMX Action Bike (but needless to say I can't remember which sodding one) reviewed a bike at my local, very small skatepark.
It was Corringham skatepark and I think that the bike was a Silverfox but I don't know for sure. One of the test riders (I think) was Greg Alderman, a local rider and there's a picture of him doing an endo on the whoops there.
Anyway if this ring any bells out there and anyone has a copy of said mag then i'd love to see the old skatepark again if you could scan a few pages in. The place was levelled shortly after but for a few years, was the only place to be for quite of few kids.

You've got me there. I'm don't think it was a Superfox test though, as I think that Corringham skatepark was levelled before that and replaced with a track that was stupidly small and crappy.
If you can send a scan in though Paul that would be great.

Guys I don't know what's going on but I can't see a thing. All I get is little white boxes with a red cross in the middle where a picture is supposed to be. What happening?

Mate, is your connection a bit slow?
You could try clicking each little red X with the right mouse button and then going to 'show picture'
That should work.
