Title: Just back from MK.
Post by: munners on August 03, 2008, 02:56 PM
Just got bck from  MK with my eldest son. Had a fantastic 2 days, met some really great people that i have always wanted to meet and also saw some ridiculously good builds! :smitten:

I would like to thank all of the Northern Monkeys for making my son and i very welcome. They leant me a jacket, and fed us and gave us drink last night. Top top top top blokes!  :daumenhoch:

Had to leave a bit sudden so i am sorry i didnt get to say goodbye to everyone.

Well done Rad. :4_17_5:

Just got back myself Nick, shame we never got to meet up. I did get to meet Joe (jt71), Steve (general lee), Dom & Jay at the Haro stand (fooking awesome turn out there!!!!), Rob (rarman) and Rob (pickle), Motomag (greg), Flatcap (daz) plus many others, shame that I didn't get to speak with Mark J, Marc, JT or Wardy. I enjoyed it, never got any bargains as such as everything had gone but the show and shine was amazing but I got my Shimano DX seat post (thanks Martin). Will deffo get there around mid-day next year with a blanket, a ton of food and wine and enjoy it more and chill. Thanks to everyone that made it possible, I really enjoyed it and it was great to meet so many people that I speak to on here.

Matt  :4_17_5:

P.S. Will post up some photos soon!  :D

Just got back from my first MK, and first race meet in nearly 20 years.

I just gotta say that watching free practice on the track brought back a lot of memories.

And i've not seen that many sh1t hot bikes in a long time.

Hats off to all the organisers, they deserve a nice cold beer....

Was also my first Rad and thoroughly enjoyed it.  Got there about 11.00 am this morning and left around 2.30pm.

Met a few faces, watched a bit of racing, bought a few bargains (Kashi Aero for a fiver anyone), and stood in amazement at some of the builds.

Highlights for me included the Haro stand (gobsmacked), the white Hutch XL24 hidden near the back, the Nomura, TRM and my fave of the day was Sawzalls white Rebel race frame.  Nice meeting you too Sawzall, glad I found out who's it was...  :daumenhoch:

Finally, I will defo be going next year, hopefully with my bro and my Rebel Freestyler in tow.

What can I say, getting to this MK has been a struggle, after cutting myself shaving recently its been a bit of a mare, but meeting some old friends, and some new ones really rocked.

Seeing how good Dan Harris looked is an inspiration.

Seeing the scottish boys on the first night started a ball rolling that hasnt really ended yet, a fantastic weekend, some great people, loads of great bikes, close racing and an atmosphere that rocked.

The guys who run this event deserve a huge pat on the back, it was awesome.

Sorry if I didn't recognize anyone who I should have, I will next time.

I wanna say thanks to my fantastic partner who helped me get through the weekend in one piece, sorry about riding the bike hon.. :smitten:

I have been looking forward to this for a long time, cant wait till next year when I finally have a crack at racing BOF, Kenny hunter etc..


The team at RAD did a fantastic job, well done guys.

Till next year guys :daumenhoch: :4_17_5:

What a top day out, really friendly bunch of people - spent most of the day chasing my 4yr old on his Mongoose and my 18mth old trying to climb over the fence onto the track!! so didn't get a chance to speak to many people. Absoultely loved the black & white mini Firebird Freestyler!!

I don't know who's the 2 dogs were opposite the haro stand but my 18mth old spent more time looking at them than the bikes!!

twas a good doo for sure ,thanks to all who made the effort to come along and enjoy the weekend. I thouroughly enjoyed most of yours company, great to have a chat to some new and old faces, Great to spend a bit of time with the RAD crew.
Really enjoyed our friday night fire session , with the £2.40 fire in a bag suedo logs  ;D Scott nice on for the company and help packing up you 3 were stars  :daumenhoch: The sambuca session was messy  :D

The most embarasing moment for me was over in the helipad feild , in  front of Animal i went to skid to a stop to have a chat and as the pad is so slippy went for a burton and stacked it right in front of them , it hurt a bit , but had to do the old i'm fine routine, funny as you like.

some stupid people about thats for sure , nicking deisel from jennys and setting up Dwain with a copper visiting in the morning, uncalled for .

Good to chat to the manchester crew , JT ,Fish and Craig ,but whoever you brought over to the fire made made me chuckle for sure  ::)

Pleased to get a show and shine place for the Floval ,proper chuffed.

Hope you liked the sounds, thanks to my co DJs ,Steve V,Rich Dirty Vans and Matt and Andy downlow, good to see you and top tunes all of you

I'm still buzzing now! Brilliant to catch up with so many old friends and to put new faces to names such as Del,Bigplinky,Longun,the list is too big!!

Second place in the S&S really chuffed!

Thanks to everyone who helped me with my build! In no particular order...

Dan H for parts,inspiration and moral support.

Philbert for slinging the wrenches and pretty much being my bike butler/bitch.

Dingo for sourcing some hard to get parts and sound advice.

Twobob for saving the day today with his level head!

S&MAlex for coming through in the midnight hour with some urgently needed bits and years of inspiration!

JT71 for helping 'the competition' sort his build out! A true Radster!

Ozrick for the cable, soothing presence and sympathetic ear!

Lara for inspiring me to get on the track and supplying me with ice pops! You rule!

...and last and by all means least, the mighty Scary Leary, highlight of my weekend to finally catch up with the man himself!

Missed Trev, Rhys, Fruit  :'(, didn't get to see Ratty/Nik, SBD, and many others but there'll be many more times to catch up!

...and obviously the biggest thanks to Dave,Dave,Billy,Rich,Matt,Bob,Nick,Rob for making it all happen.

I'm feeling.......emotional.

Enjoyed the atmos, the sounds, the displays, the racin, lots of goodies to buy, and just generally meeting peeps, without listing you all, you know who you are ;)  ;) Also not forgetting the support from the MK track, first aiders, sponsors and of course all rad members :daumenhoch: :daumenhoch:

And goes without saying, but I will anyway, to all those involved in organising the event, (haven't put names for fear of missing someone) in putting their time, money and effort to making this a great event......it must take a serious amount of dedication, a big big thankyou :4_17_5:

Post by: SaMAlex on August 04, 2008, 09:59 AM
Man, what a weekend. I have been in a right mess of excitement for 3 days straight. Im not sure it has done me any good to have the massive physical exertion of riding round the WHOLE track several times, combined with the lack of sleep and the emotional overloads of the last few days.

Here’s some of the things that are sticking with me:

Spending some time with the crew I was with. Laz, Phil, General Lee, 2Bob, Lara. All of you are fine people and I would have had a great weekend with any one of you. The Laz and 2Bob show is why I didn’t get to sleep any earlier. I didn’t want to miss a thing.

Having such a good time on my bike. Riding the back straight on Sat evening with Phil was great. Always a pleasure to ride with CBCL. Riding the track on Sunday with James Hitchcox. Anyone who knows the riding James does and the Company he rides for will know how surreal it was for me and him to be sessioning a track together. I enjoyed racing so much. I managed to stay upright for all 6 races and carried out my prime objective of jumping everything I could and throwing in some skids along the way. I had one race that was the best so far. Proper elbows with Dingo, who I managed to bluff my way past, and then Cotty (I think) who had non of it, and beat be back like the amateur I am. I almost hugged him when we crossed the line, it was so much fun.

Getting told off by stodgy for not cleaning my red challenger, for the second year running. I know it was in the show n shine but Jedi wanted to ride on the track so I had to let him have a go on it. I only bought it with me cos I realised the other bikes I had were all chrome, and I hate chrome!

Doing some pit stop bike work with 2Bob. It was like working with a master (who kept telling me off for using the adjustable spanner the wrong way round). Nice and steady, one thing at a time, till the problem was solved. –thanks.

Lara racing for the first time. Full props to you for getting up there. And for throwing the sXe salute on the start gate before the last race. Loved it!

Seeing 2Bob and Laz on the track. I don’t see them riding enough and the smiles from them spoke volumes. Rob was even nailing some of the double and triple sets. Not bad for his first time on a BMX track!!

At the end of the Sunday we didn’t want it to end. Our small crew stood at the burger van (the tables had been packed away) drinking tea (they had to refill the earn for us), just to try and extend the weekend a little further. Even the rain just made us move to the S&S tent. Finally, when they took the tent down around us we admitted defeat and called the weekend over. On the way home I phoned General Lee to string things out. He didn’t even ask why I was called, he just carried on talking about bikes like we were still track side.

Thanks for everyone for organizing the event. I met loads more RAD users (some Im still not sure who they were), and caught up with loads I already know. Always a pleasure.

I can say nothing bad about the weekend. Top time had.

Gary PoolySherriff and Dwain Dibbly - so cool to drink with you - dwain you are hilarious, great bikes too, and Gary - what can I say? you are a diamond.

Dave and Billy and all the Rad team - this was a top weekend, you should be very very proud.

Waxin - amazing diplay mate!

Lee - stop it now. You have too many perfect bikes! Love it.

TwoBobRob, Laz and co - I laughed til I felt sick around your campfire. You rule.

Southbank Scott - Loved your old Torker being pulled out of your mums loft and brought there - all rust and abuse - I love that bike, one pf my faves of the weekend. My other faves were Harris Dirt Bros and Sawzalls sidehack... and one other.. more on that in a mo.
Monkey Biscuits, Gashead, Lil Gashead, Ratty and Mrs Ratty , Del, Ron Burgundy, Mad Dog, MotomagII, Firebird, SteveP, Kuwahero, Bananaman, Philbert, Sawzall, and everyone else I met for the first time, it was a pleasure, so nice to make new friends.

Last but not least - S&MAlex - top man as ever to hang out with, i think I actually love you. Great laughs, and a bit of cleaning up in the mid schol section between us!
My total fave bike of the whole show, was Alex's S&M Mad Dog - and was an honour to see it - and really would have loved it to win its category. Instead, some cnut from the telly got the trophy. Celebrities eh? Tw@ts. all of em.
 
In all seriousness - top weekend... a year cant pass quickly enough now!
steve


My other fave bikes

What a great weekend. We had such an amazin spot too. Hooked up with alot of people from RAD, many new faces which was cool.
Sat night at the camp fire was sooo much fun, i cried laughing as so did a few others.
Not sure of the names of the two women and guy i lent my beanie too that night were?
Thanks to pickle putting up with us and thanks to him for telling that dude off his bike with ghetto blaster to stay down under the bridge for the rest of the night/morning.

Was my first race and first time on a race course, i entered this at the very last minuite just for fun and found i was hooked!
Couldn't believe i had to race 4x though....
Everyone was very encouraging, only had one problem on sat night but that got sorted by friends of mine, thank you.
Thankyou everyone who arranged the whole event.
Some place, same time next year......

Lola.....anyone have any pics of me in a one of my races?

I have video footage of all the races.

I have just started to convert the clips so they are suitable for downloading from the internet!!

There was a lot more footage than what I usually take  so its going to take a some time to convert and even longer to upload!!!

Also because there is too much footage to stick on one dvd using the software that came with my camcorder, I have had to find some new software.

So it might take me a while to learn how to use it!!

So anyone waiting for a DVD might have to wait a few days!!

Cool weekend.  Had fun on the track messing around on Saturday and a good craic around the campfire Saturday night. As Alex has said, I was in no rush for it to end either and squeezed pretty much every available minute out of the weekend.

Always nice to put names to faces, even if I am rubbish at it.  I'm sorry again to everyone I didn't remember I'd already met, or continue to mix up with others....

I had a really good time with good friends this weekend, something I've not done for quite a while now. Just hanging out, no agenda and no pressures of life.  Happy days.

Props to all the organisers and staffers, all your hard work paid off nicely eh?   :4_17_5:




One final thing.  To the thieves and sex pests who attended.  Don't bother next time, I WILL NOT be anywhere near as kind and tolerant as I was this weekend. You were lucky and judging by the way you ran away from me, you know it.

Consider yourselves marked.

I must have missed something. But it's fair to say Rob you have the required look of menace when required so I'm glad that
was enough to put an end to whatever that was.
