  1. Had a good day!!

    As has been said, the trials park isn't big, or particulaly exciting..but if your in the area its defo. Worth a ride.

    Think we rode all the possible lines in the park, but it was a good laugh :)

    The rocks down at the dockside though.. Wow!! Lots of fun and had an awesome ride :)

    Was going to come ride Dockside with you, but ened up staying there, wish I came now to be honest. Was pretty boring at the park though, need to get back into riding again to be honest.

  2. Sorry not been on for a while lads. I'm still attending this tomorrow (today). I will be there about 10am. Yes, it does start at 10:30am but it's always good to get there first and see what's going down :).

    I will be on a grey adamant with the bald tyres :(. I need new ones. I'm only 16 so dont be shocked aha. (Never know unless you know me) So yeah, don't be scared to approach me, I don't bite.

  3. Helmets I understand, as everyone should wear a helmet anyway. But pads for what is essentially cycling, I doubt many people have pads, I certainly don't. Surely helmet and gloves is substantial enough for us.

    To be hoenst, i don't think anybody will try and pick you up for not wearing pads. However, i don't feel that they will stop you riding even if they did, just ensure you all bring lids!:helmet:

  4. So as soon as i posted that post about probably not going down there, i went straight down there. The i got there, and realised i didnt have my camera, or even my phone, so i called up my mate, and told him to come down, and bring his camera, he came down, we took a few shots. However, now i need to wait for him to send them to me, so i cant show you them yet. Unfortunatily we didnt get to ride due to the fact that "it isn't open yet" said the builder. But was was nice and he let us come in and take shots and stuff.

    I should have them up tomorrow morning, just relying on that kid really.

    The Trials section on the other hand, does actually look pretty good, theres no need for me to describe it due to the fact that the plan above is the same.

    Was also told today that because the press are there you need to have pads and lids.

    Also today i was informed that some of the skating skums were telling people it started at 11am, so they could have a half hour skate to them selfs, so yeah, it starts at 10:30am, but i might try and get there for 10am.

  5. Basically I few years back there were many people around the Rainham town who were bugging Medway council to build a skate park, people done petitions, letters, meetings, phone calls, everybody was basically trying really heard to get a skate park, and now we've got one.

    Its official opening is on the 21nd of November (That's a sunday) at 11AM, and your more then welcome to come, it does actually have a trials section in it, but to be honest, I don't really know much about the actual park, I do know it is concrete, and its fairly big, and quite a variety of different things, that's if its still as I saw the plans a while back.

    Here's some information about it.. http://democracy.med...DF.aspx?ID=5195 I haven't really had a proper research into it, but there are some mentions of Trials falsities in that document.

    If anybody is interested in going, then I'm going to be waiting outside Rainham station with my bike waiting for everybody (if anybody) and ill take you all up and show you the way.

    The local press will be there to record so im guessing its going to be on television or something? South East News or something?

    PS: YOU NEED TO WEAR A LID :helmet:

    However, you will only need to wear a Helmet on this day because of the Press.

    Edit: Grammar :o

    Edit: Forgot to say this is in Kent South East of London :)

  6. Nah, people just suck a lot more at being social...

    Just got home from a mildly messy night. Have started, finished and submitted a bit or coursework due by 9am, and eaten a shit-ton of epic pasta bake. I have 7 shades of lipstick on my face and 3 on my ribs/general torso. I'm knackered, but had such a good night it's unreal. Good times!

    Fair play, sounds like you've had a pretty good night, thats providing your not a gay?

  7. The video was lacking, we created it from scratch in 2 days.

    The editing guy also managed to pick the most boring clips. I'm also suffering from a back injury in the clip and didn't have a ride for 2 months or so :(

    The idea was as followed:

    A website where people can upload/link their video's from a specific spot, people could challenge other riders on that spot by making a video on the exact same location whilst trying to beat the performance. There would be a rating system where the community would decide which rider had the best performance at a specific spot. An overall ranking for each rider would be created from this.

    The video had to impliment this idea in the distant future. The video's on the website could be shown in the enviroment as a hologram, allowing the riding to get a more realistic feel of what they could challenge.

    I think it's a pretty nice idea, but the class never gave enough room to actually build the website.

    Concept screenshot for the website:

    I take back what i said about it lacking, this has had a lot of thought gone into it, and i apologize for jumping to conclusions.

  8. I got halfway through page 2 and got bored of the obvious. Then I saw Ben get involved and thought it could be more fun, then I got bored again. Then I wondered whether JT had got in here yet, has he?

    BURN THEM. BURM THEM ALL.

    Then stoke the fire with the fact that I'm here and ready to correct peoples grammar.

    Wheres the spelling bee gone?

  9. Aint been reading the topic, but im back for my winter treatment. However, i aint been riding past year, but not been riding, however, i've decided to start riding again! I'm back!
