Ok guys and gals
With some help off a mate of mine (Tom Savage) also a fellow bocker, we have managed to find a few more people in and around the northeast area who share the same passion of wanting to be a kangaroo on speed.
So i have decided that a northest bocking group is well overdue. We have a few names already but we are on the hunt for as many as possible so if your out there and would like to join or know please e-mail me on lee.bolam@dur.ac.uk or reply on hear.
We have no name or meeting place as yet but we are working on those and open to any suggestions.
So far we have people in:
Newcastle x4
Stcokton x1
Midlesbrough x1
Redcar x1
So we are looking for a meeting place somewhere in the middle thats is good for bocking, so again we are open to suggestions.
in the mean time maybe we could arrange a meet sometime in next few weeks and some fun :)

-
Don't you welcome them for me Nero! I HATE their guts! >=[
(lol - Just playing. Yay for new group! ^_^)
-
Hey cheers sky high:) i s**t me self when i read that first bit of Brendans message then i read the rest of your messgae haha where are u guys mainly based at?
-
Lol - Awesome. Halloween isn't even here yet and I'm already scaring people.
We're mostly based around Birmingham, where we currently have a gym sesh on Tuesdays.
Feel free to come gym jam with us! =]
-
Where abouts is the gym? bit of a long way to come bounce in a gym for a few hours lol its atleast a 3 hour drive to brummy land from where i live and 4 hours for those who live in newcastle i think. But if you could arrange to have the gym for a whole weekend that might be worth a trip down :) cos we dont have a gym hear we can priactice on so it would be cool to come to yours and im sure u wouldnt mind showing me where im going worng. i only been bouncing now for 1 month lol and 2 of those weeks i hurt my back lol.
-
By the way, i don't actually live in newcastle, i live 50 miles north, hence i'm keen to see it in newcastle, and not too much further south that we usually meet :D as a teenager, i'm rather short on transport at the moment... hah...

yeyyy kangaroos on speed! i can't wait for the new bocking group!! :D

Why are you getting so obsessed with finding somewhere central
its not important, we can spread meets around - i've done it before and its very easy so long as people are willing to put in the travel time
if we alternate where it is, costs will work out about the same as if we all went somewhere central anyway
if you cant afford it, then skip one out
public transport is better than its reputation - just get on the bus/train and do it - because a central meet wont work - we wont find anywhere perfectly central unless we're very lucky - and half the fun of the sport is trying out new and different places - not just going to the same spot every week - which to be honest, gets a little boring
-
i'd be willing to go to newcastle as long as i can scam a lift off lee :Cwink:
-
Yep your right Hilly, I drive and im willing to take extras would make it cheeper all round then to, spreading the cost n all that.
the hardst part is finding places. i had a quick look round durham centre yesterday and thats no good to bock i dont think cos its all cobble stones which im guessing is not good is that right?
-
check out bock spots section - prissick plaza - it is made of win - plus there's a park with some funky lookin benches we're trying out saturday - i havent tried the other park yet - but will do in due course
-
yeh we can check it out. your Jacub arent ya? the guy meeting us on sat morning in boro?
-
yep he is =] weel have a wander over to prissick plaza that morning if you fancy it and its close enough :P
-
yeh sure why not, have my cuffs turned up yet tom?
-
yeah =] theyre here
-
yep he is =] weel have a wander over to prissick plaza that morning if you fancy it and its close enough :P
ah - i thought we might hit that snag - turns out its gonna take twice as long to walk to Marton as i thought - im still up 4 it - but its been a long while since ive done an hours walk i may need a long break before bocking again after that
-
im gonna ring the ranger now and see if weel actually be aloud on it
-
were not allowed into prissick plaza :Ccry: just rang the ranger and asked
-
bull!! i'll email him when i'm free and get a proper argument outta him first - cos that place is too good if we can event book it, we'll own
