Hi all,

Just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone for coming down! Was really nice to meet all of you, look forward to seeing everyone at some more meets soon! Loving Gemzie's pics, as always.

Sorry I had to dash off, will stay at the next one much longer.

Highlights for me were seeing so many people in Basingstoke on stilts, Locky's backflip and Jason on the drift skates in the underpass.

Low point = Snapped spring.

Can't wait for the next one!

There is only one question to ask Dave

When is the next one   :Claugh:

Gotta admit this is more like it used to be when I started (lots of loonies trying to be the first in an ambulance  :Claugh: )

Lets keep this going

Jason  :Hoofies2: :Claugh:

Its strange because when I first saw this thread I ran it by our guys last week and they were full of questions. Who's going, whats there, is it fun, how far is it, which way is up etc etc. and for a while there was not a lot of interest in going but I gently persuaded most of them and we all thoroughly enjoyed it which just goes to show that with the right attitude it really doesn't matter who's going or where it is - all you need is people who love bocking and some dry weather.

I think everyone really enjoyed this and it just goes to show that all it takes is someone like Dave to say its going to be at this location on this date. People will either come or they wont. But if nobody steps up and calls it then it definitely never happens.

Excellent day, realised just how much I've missed all you guys! Nice pics Gemmzie, really like some of your shots - Try bumping your exposure time to 1/1000 or shorter and you'll get rid of the motion blur on some :Csmile:
Mine are up here, managed to avoid Jason landing on me at this meet!
