You should run along side the route, because then technically your not doing it so you can't endanger ickle people.

Yeah I see what you are saying but you could argue that going out and meeting in town centres and such is dangerous to others too. :-\

 :offtopic: :offtopic: :offtopic: Can I just say, I started this thread as a serious one, to help raise some money for charity and spread the good word of bocking, and what has happened to it??? talking about hurting people and murder?? Come on people, this isnt on, you all know your own capabilities onyour bocks, if you cant handle it, then dont come, I will be going (mebe not to the Norwich one) but I will be taking part, raising money. So could we go back to the subject and not all this stupid stuff??? start another thread to do that, dont hijack this, or any other ones.

Its all about the fun! Im sorry about that other post guys and gals, I just didnt like the way the topic was going.
Title: Re: Sport Relief Mile - General Chat Thread
Post by: Spud on January 26, 2008, 09:13:31 PM
I wasnt trying to be like that. Not like people want to go around hitting or killing people...but accedents happen and it's just how things are these days. I dont like it. Its just the way things have gone. Sue everybody for stupid mistakes....they happen...cannot be predicted..cannot be helped and EVERYBODY MAKES THEM. Unfortunatly consecences could be high.

I didnt mean to offend anybody and I wasnt implying anything. Just maybe something that everybody should be aware of.

We all know the consequences!  :police: Behave or we all loose out, If you behave, and dont mess about when your too near people, if you have an accident, then they wont be near enuff to get hurt!  :Straddle5:

hex is right, if we all behave responsibly we will be welcomed back to places we go, if not the sport will have difficulty expanding

So far from the posts I have seen I really beleive bockers are responsible people. Really been pleased with the support I have received from the group

You both have a point, but Hex is right if you are near enough to a bystander you have to be extra careful, looking at capital bocking and the CIN event if everyone does their bit you should have no mishaps or accidents! Also Charlie B is correct at this early stage of the sport image counts for everything but I can't think of one person on the forums who would jepodise things for the sport.

However just looking at the threads there's three options currently for this event

1.  This current thread Started by Hex - I don't know if this is going to be combined with the one that Becky has mentioned just for scouts or are you trying to organise a separate one Hex?

If Hex's one is separate from Becky's then you also have the following

2. Becky's event for scouts only which they have permission for

The alternative for those who arent scouts would be Charlie B's

3. Which is in Lincoln which is open to all Bockers see http://www.projumpforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=1576.0

If the one that Becky has mentioned on this thread is separate to your one Hex, I can separate the posts to avoid confusion - let me know :)

he is right. You can do no more than that. I was not saying that people were irisponsible. Really didnt mean for it to seem like that

Naz

The event that has agreed bockers can participate and welcomes them is in Lincoln not Norwich.

Post by: Becky on February 27, 2008, 08:04:50 PM
I think they had already booked 20 spaces at each of the 2 miles, we are the only bockers running, so they arent going to fill up!

Ill let you know when my pack comes through
