JJ Leigh Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) how about we just organise massive rides on trials forum too? its gonna be hard to park in london anyway and cost loads to keep moving ur car each hour, and it'll be annoying! there needs to be more rides like this but not just in london, in different places too!

harmertrials Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Get the train. All of the spots listed are a 5 minute ride apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 There's quite a lot of free parking within a 5 minute ride of South Bank on weekends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 damn, why not these type of things happens here in Northern Ireland as well? Because you appear to be the only rider there? how about we just organise massive rides on trials forum too? its gonna be hard to park in london anyway and cost loads to keep moving ur car each hour, and it'll be annoying! there needs to be more rides like this but not just in london, in different places too! Go for it, nothing stopping you organising one. You have things like the DJ ride in Portsmouth that are pretty close to you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Nichols Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 It's so generous of Ozonys to allow me to ride Southbank for free. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ Leigh Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 whens the DJ ride? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saracenrobb Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 (edited) I'm driving down. Parking at barbican car park, £8 all day on weekends (Google the site) . Better than f*%ing around with trains Edited March 6, 2014 by saracenrobb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake. Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I may consider going to the same car park if I can find a mate to split costs on. Should add to £15-20 each with fuel and parking, not bad imo! Not looking forward to driving into central though. Sam I think it's generous of ozonys to make this event to be honest, seems like they've put a bit of effort into it with the posters, riding map and all. I'd be happy to give them money just for that haha since I've never ridden London it's massively helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually surprisingly easy to drive into central, you pretty much stay on 1 road and sit in traffic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 The parking I was alluding to earlier on is on Webber Street, and the roads going off it (such as Lancaster Street). There are different zones on there so you need to keep an eye on the signs to find the right ones to stop at, but on Sundays most of it's free, and on Saturday some of it's free and some of it's free after 1pm. I used to live just off that road and park there every time when I go into London. Like Jack was saying, driving in is pretty easy. If there aren't any major roadworks or events on it doesn't even really take that long from most directions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bikeperson45 Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 I might come see what's going on if I'm told the rider in that picture actually landed the tailwhip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delcypher Posted March 8, 2014 Report Share Posted March 8, 2014 I'm up for this! It's been a long time since I went riding and now that I've moved to London it would be good to learn where the good spots are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake. Posted March 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 I know it's just a standard group ride but still, the fact a trials company makes it is a bit different to a rider like me making it in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Not at all, back in the day (here we go) there used to be a massive London ride every weekend - all it takes is a little organisation and willing, shame it seems to have been lost in the past few years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash-Kennard Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Big rides in all cities seems to have been lost. I blame the trains for being shit all round, city councils for making parking a massive f**king faff for anywhere free and buses because they are useless for people with bikes who dont want to ride them long distances. how many people came to the legendary london ride 01/03/2009? must have been more than 100 easily. shame i wont be able to make it guys, have a gooden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake. Posted March 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Haha whatever I do or say in this thread seems to be wrong, this is why I won't make riding threads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross McArthur Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Haha whatever I do or say in this thread seems to be wrong, this is why I won't make riding threads. Don’t worry man, it's not you. It’s a Triboulats Brothers hatred/snobbery thing. If it was anyone else running the street ride everyone would be foaming at the gash. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
