TROYston Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 I know there is a website, but would really love to do some exploration with some riders, would make for some sick riding and photo ops, and then go riding after for a + . Anyone up for arranging something? Burton is dead, and been to most places around here i know of. Nothing interesting really. Thoughts? Ideas? For those who don't know, urban exploration is the exploration of old buildings complexes military bases ect all abandoned and unused. Some pretty interesting/freaky stuff depending on where you go.

Revolver Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 We've got a thread about this somewhere. It might be called 'UE' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TROYston Posted January 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 I did have a quick look, but couldn't find anything, and that thread is a bit past bumpabal? Could we not just start a fresh, for arranging dates or whatnot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Nothing's past bumpable if you've got a good reason. Still, if you want to check out spots, look in that thread. No reason why this one can't be for arranging trips though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

froggy Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 I did Manchester Premier Inn on Friday night.. Absolutely amazing! I went with me friend.. She absolutely loved it, the view was immense, took some pictures but they were all crap as we only had our phones. Took about 20 minutes to realize how to get up there.. Pretty crafty. Here's some pictures of the view up top (Not my pictures/thread) http://www.28dayslater.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=46154 Loved it soooo much we're going to do some asylums/Hospitals next week, I'll be sure to take a proper camera this time.

Mike Deere Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 I've always noticed that there's a strong positive correlation between riders and explorers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

club_card Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 I remeber in Barcelona we were a bit drunk and decided to climb up some scafolding to the roof of some flats and we explored and went for ages jumping from roof to roof. In the center were all the buildings are old you can go really far then we found and abandoned flat and went out the front door. It was quite exiting and some of the views were cool too.

froggy Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Do tell. I asked the same question before I decided to check it out, fortunately no one answered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 No one will generally give out access details unless they know you/have seen quite a few decent reports from you as numerous places have been locked up recently due to people not giving a shit. I used to be really active when I was in the UK, am going to be getting back into it when I get home. Cant really afford to travel anywhere in Canada to see places as theres loads of stuff to do, but not really in Alberta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Harrison Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 I wondered where you'd got to! I was over the other side in Toronto for a short while, and it was outstanding. That and the US made it pretty difficult to come back here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Ive got some shots to show you of a certain bridge in Vancouver. Ha I know what you mean though, I really dont want to leave. If I was living in Vancouver I'd be smashing up all there is to do there, so so so many docks, factorys to do its mental, hopefully get a day or three over there again before I leave to properly do it. Wish I could go to Seattle aswell, alot to do there in the form of Docks. Snap where the hell have you been of late, did you go underground of have you just taken off everything you were doing? Should I pm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Harrison Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Bridge sounds good. I don't know anyone out that way, and to be honest I didn't meet many locals in Toronto or Niagara - enough people from Aus/UK were there at the time that we just did whatever we felt like, and it worked. I just don't post much anymore - I got tired of endless discussions about who got what shut down and who posted/did whatever first, journos sniffing for stories, etc. I bargained that if I didn't put photos up, then I could just get on and do what I wanted. The thing is, I feel a bit guilty that I'm not putting much up on the web because I find my friends and others' contributions really inspiring. For that reason I've built the majority of a new website that's focused on adventures and words more than an index of locations and photos like the old one. Maybe I'll finish it in a few months' time. The other motivation is that having a website at least made me organise my stuff and get it written up. Nearly two years have gone past and I'm in a mess!!! Anyway, my best advice - return to the UK only when absolutely necessary! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Would be a shame if you didnt get it all up, just keep it low (lower) key I guess?! You still kicking around with Turk and the likes or you going with Dankst and that lot these days? He still in Paris saying that? I have to come back in like 6 or 7 weeks sadly due to my visa running out. Really really annoyed at the fact. Dont want to go home at all really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froggy Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 (edited) Some photos from last night, again, wasn't planned. I only had my camera phone This is defiantly one of my favorite places in the world. Edited January 21, 2010 by froggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alextheferret Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 I've spent alot of time reading through all the threads on 28dayslater, especially the 'Theatres and Cinemas' section (there's something that I find really spooky about them!) I've always wanted to do a bit of UE myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 One of the all greatest buildings in Brum recently got cracked and weve been looking at it from the front for years. The guy that cracked is one of my very good mates, and just purely worked up the balls to walk past the 2 cctv cameras protecting it and found an open window to get in. Just goes to prove that you can find absolute mints if your willing to take a risk. I hope to god its still open when I get home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
