DBC working to get trails in Hemel


Just got back from a meeting with our local council about installing a track and trails in Hemel Hempstead, Meeting went well , we explained what we need and how it would be to the counciler and they all seam keen!, Now myself Carl and Scuba have to put forward for planning permission basically showing the council what we want in the space provided,
The Space is ruffly 40m wide at the top 100m wide at bottom and 75m long on a hill, so it be a good size if all goes well
The Councilers also confirmed £5000 towards the Project,
Unfortunatly I dont 100 %how long this Project will take, but if we get Planning permission granted! it should go threw quickly
Fingers crossed it this year , but were see

Be good to no what you all think ,

Attack of the Emo Clones

What has happenened to the state of riders today ? Yesterday P Bazza Nigel and Barry hit a packed out corby !Big mistake paying the 11quid to ride a unridable park, you could'nt ride anything properly as all the sponser me wanna be's were out trying their double whipfliptricks and going for gold! their were snakes everywhere, riders were cutting others up on purpose!which is never good to see Not only that, and exactly as Nigel said " It looks like the Attack of the Emo Clones, they all got the same bars, their bikes all look the same,they all have the same footjam style and they got the same Womens trousers on, WTF's going on man!" to which we all laughed hard at! But what he said is true as you could see the clone troopers every where !
It was a shame to see as us older rider grew up riding just for fun and the goodtimes only!we would all wait are turn and laugh at each others expence!Riders today come across as if they deserve the extra go in the bowl to do yet another 10 footjams and the same tricks they been doing all day and because?????well i dont no, we all paid the 11 Squids to get in, so get to the back of the cue CLONE!
BMXing is a freestyle sport! which is a good thing! wearing exactly the same pants as your mates, Women pants at that ! is a strange thing which half of us will never understand and probaly dont even wanna, Men wear mens cloths for good reasons, hence, Womens and Men's! each to their own tho hey!.
