Dirt Jumps Date: Aug 11, 2009 12:36:01 AM PDT Author: admin Hi guys - first of all apologies for the delay in responding. We missed seeing the post initially and then we've had to wait until we all convened at a monthly meeting. More info on the way within a day or so...   Reply to this Post

Dirt Jumps Date: Aug 12, 2009 1:24:16 AM PDT Author: admin OK - we've sent you a message to your private email address. Basically we're inviting you and your parents/guardian to come along and meet us to discuss. In the meantime you may also be interested in other local places you can use a bike which you may not be aware of: 1. Wooden ramps in ball-park at rear of Hanham Library and Hanham Youth Centre (owned by HYC but open to all). These ramps are intended for riders to practise skateboard and BMX-type "tricks" as opposed to "pump-tracks" which mimic Olympic-style race tracks (see below). 2. So-called "pump-track" at Hinton Green. Access via road at side of Homebase or via Kingsfield Lane entrance opposite "Comet" roundabout, Aldermoor Way. Tarmac laid on earthen mounds, provided by Oldland Parish Council for all-comers. Very popular and well-used site. 3. Another "pump-track" on Hanham Common, accessed via Memorial Road and/or Whittucks Road. Hope that helps.

Date: Nov 14, 2009 4:24:03 PM PST Author: joe robbins thanks for the reply about those options .. but due too chavs smashing the ramps up at hanham they have been took away. and also hinton green bmx have had alot of trouble due to peoples bike been stolen and items such as phones,ipods and etc have been stolen from bags.. this is why i am replyin to ask you again if we can the permission to build dirtjumps in cockridge.. these jumps will be about 9 jumps max but they would not look scruffy and messy and they cna be maintained by me and my freinds which we have a couple of years experince of build jumps. me and my mates are in the range of ages from 13-17. we would be there everyday maintaning the jumps and clearing up after us.. As i live in belsher drive i would be the main person who would be going there on daily basis. thanks for replyin. JOE.   Reply to this Post
