went there a few times back around 1990 i think,cool little bowl good to mess about in. i went back a couple of years ago to try and find it only to find out it was gone like many other spots.

Cheers Trill! Would have been `89? the last time I was there.Place was never up to much,but still sad to see it`s gone now.Did you ever go to Crouch End ramp or the tiny halfpipe at Kings Cross?

trill · « **Reply #11 on:** September 18, 2008, 08:34 PM »

Cheers Trill,I`ll think bike is coming with me when I pop back home to London..

Bike should definitely come with you. Talacre may have gone but Cantelows has been revamped, Stockwell resurfaced and there's a small bowl in Finsbury Park.

hey,i went to talacre quite a few times-probably with trill when he went,one time i went with graham marfleet and he blunted the steel fence out of the bowl-ludicrous this was probably 89/90 the fence was about 5 foot high!

stuntmaster · « **Reply #15 on:** October 06, 2008, 07:18 AM »

stockwell supposed to be good now and i remember king`s cross ramp that was tiny and went to vert and only about 4 foot high
any one got any pics of talacre ?

Nothing goes to vert at four feet except a one-shot wonder in the best porn you've ever seen.

HEYWOOD BMX · « **Reply #17 on:** October 06, 2008, 11:39 AM »
