Site Help and Rules / Closing registration and Bg's future.

I think banning people simply because they are knobs is way better than waiting for the knobs to break a rule.

nah man, that's too harsh.

most of the decent members on here were knobs when they first joined. now they're entartaining, some are even intersting. some are even admins.

we do our best to separate the wheat from the chaff.

but some will slip through. with the combined popularity of bmx and t'interweb, were're bound to get some dicks. the hard thing (fnaar fnaar) is to realise some of these dicks are ok given some time.

there are other bmx forums out there, i think most are a bit shit. but if they're your bag, so be it, go have fun. please don't come here if you dislike it.

sheepdog and all us lot (admins and mods) try to keep a tight ship. a common criticism is that bg is too uptight. trust me, we're not. come and have a laugh, express wit. just don't be a knob.

we don't want to end up like the ride forums circa '01.

i've re-opened this.

DO NOT usa it as a way to have a slagging fest. just post up those who're reliable, and those who are not.

if there's any contention with any deals bikeguide cannot take responsibility. Do not come crying to us.

but to re-iterate, DON'T turn this thread into a slagging fest, it's pretty usefull.

I'll get down for this one fo' shaw!
I can have a word with James about some prizes and stuff if you like Paulie.

safe man, that'd be good.

it's gonna be very, uh, loosely organised.
we're not really sure how to do it but there's been quite a bit of interest from some riders with various hook ups. i'm kinda jumping the gun by posting about it, but it's less than two weeks away!

as soon as the flyers done (hopefully this weekend) more info will be available.

News / East London Street Jam... POSTPONED DUE TO DEMOLITION OF SPOT!

it's all very last minute, flyer's not been sorted yet.

you may know the spot.... the wallride on old bethnal green road is scheduled for demolition. this isn't bollocks, we've seen the planning application made to tower hamlets for some flats, day care centre etc... so we're having a jam.

saturday 24th november, kicks off around 1ish. the snickers wallride on the corner of old bethnal green road and mansford street, london e2.

we're gonna try to get some home made ramps sorted. but if not we still have a banging wallride, some rails, a hip, and a subwall. plus the mandatory manny pad.

we're getting some prizes and various companies are being contacted. but it's not about points winning prizes, it's about having a laugh before the spot gets demolished.

so get down, it'll be a giggle.

i can't find a pic, but it's the red brick wallride in this vid.

Me and some mates are coming from the Wimbledonish area (Raynes park and such). Is it best to go to Waterloo aswell?

if you can get a trian to waterloo you can get off there, then scoot across the river to blackfriars and get the overground to kentish town then ride from there. take an a-z like, cantelowes is on camden road.

looks like a few of us will be going, i ride a red wtp, gyro and pegz. the rest of my lot are mainly brakeless. we'll probably be sitting down and moaning.
