I remember a Jamie Glover from Malvern that used to race.

Hillbillies and rebels were my local tracks. I used to go down to Hillbillies every night.

hi zippy whats your name i might know you what a shame about the tracks it should never happen
we need these tracks for the kids today or it will be harder to produce the next dale homes

My name is Simon Barnes, I went to Dyson's and Hanley Castle, although I always seemed to go out with girls from the Chase.

Hillbillies was a great track, loved the quarterpipe and the racing there. I had an Aero Pro Team Burner back in the day, then had a Chrome Aero Pro when I snapped the team issue frame.

I remember it was the talk of the town that you got a pro star. Everyone was well jelous but I think they may have all taken the piss a bit as well.
I noticed that Keith Jones had just joined. Didn't his dad run Rebels after a dissagreement with the people that ran Hillbillies. I also think he had a patterson if I remember rightly.

and yeh kieths dad bob went to rebel i think because of the john ieles family (think i spelt that wrong)

?? LOL

YOU HAD A PRO STAR

everyone wanted a prostar.

John Ieles was a cock. I sold him my GT World Tour and he never paid for it so I had to go back round and get it back the hard way.

I liked Rebels track I've got some pictures of me riding it as a kid but haven't got a scanner to upload them with.

Hang on though I can take a picture of them and upload those.

glov · « **Reply #13 on:** February 06, 2006, 08:12 PM »

if you lokk closely you can see the old buildings

Zippy · « **Reply #14 on:** February 06, 2006, 08:29 PM »

It's a shame they're all left to waste away. It seems that there is a lot of old tracks left like that nowadays.

glov · « **Reply #15 on:** February 06, 2006, 09:10 PM »

idea,, lets all contact the local councils and demand the tracks back LOL
nice idea

Hi Zippy do you remeber my old man from Dysons, he used to teach their

Peter Western, PE, then Physics, he was also head of the third year.

And yes their were pretty girls at the chase, lol,

I remeber when I was about 15, i was out drunk one night and was getting stuck into this girl, I took her home and my old man caught us back at the house, not too happy,

""Son if you are going to bring 14 year old girls back to the house, can you ,make sure I dont teach them please, its rather embarresing -- LOL

AJWD · « **Reply #17 on:** February 07, 2006, 08:09 AM »

Wow I can remember all those old buildings around the track, and the long drive up to it. I used to race there every week in summer - Rebel's was definitely the best track, and because it was slightly out of the way you didn't get all the pikey kids down there. Warndon was a different matter altogether - that was anarchy, and like going on the most dangerous assault course of your life!

Happy days....still got my Rebel's trophy somewhere.

Could anyone with pics of the Malvern Rebels track, and any of Cocksmoor send them to me please. The address is: adrian@beinghunted.com

Thanks,
Adey.

Hey Jon, I remember your dad. He was head of the third year when I was there.
I've lost count of the girls I went out with at the chase, although dysons did have some nice girls too. I went out with a girl called Natelle Gillman who I remember thinking was quite a good looking girl.

My dad used to rent one of the units down next to the rebels track so I was down there quite a lot as well. I take it you didn't go to Dysons though.

I use to ride at the hillbillies track on north end lane all the time 1989 onwards, The club chairman was melvin hyles something like that at the time. I go past the track twice a week
and still look in from time to time, kids on those mini motos and quads us it now so theres no way you could put a new track there it be ruined in 2 minutes. I don't know how many of you live around the area but i live in worcester and theres nothing now for us bmx racers i have to travel to bristol or burnham to train. I've tried with the councils to get a track going but they have no money as usual. But there quite happy to build skateparks. Some of my best times were spend on that track its a shame there gone

I used to live on Battenhall Rise, and still have friends in Barbourne. Haven't been back for over a year now, good place for a drink or three!

I went out with a bird called Coral Rowberry from Malvern - briefly, and had quite a to-do with her friend called Sam I think.....I leave it there!

My dad thought it best I went to the chase as he taught a dysons, smooth move, would not have liked to have been at school where the old man was a teacher, he found out about enough of the trouble i got into without me being at the same school, pleanty he did not find out about as i was at the chase lol !!!

I think i stopped racing in 1987, Melvin Hiles son, John Hiles was in my age group when i used to race, I am pleased to say I used to smoke him on the track every time we raced, in fact i dont think he ever beat me in 2 or 3 years of racing, I heard he went on to do very well in later years, - but I am not sure many people were racing in those dark times !
