it seem very probable that the 2011 May Day weekend will now be a 4 day event!
So any long distance thoughts for doing stuff?
Get away to the sun?
street party?
Big weekender meet?
Variety of meets to travel about to?
Nowt much?
Have a think, or not, maybe post somat :Cbiggrin:
-
massive meet, everyone who can,
somewhere good though, pleanty of room
-
brums pretty central isnt it? :o)
-
I am thinking stilt... to the pub then stilt some more :D
-
im sorry im confused id this a meet, and when is it plse, were etc and can i come :)
-
Hmmm how about a mad uk-wide minibus trip again?
But where to go and I dont wanna be the only driver this time!
-
I will be driving by then Locky :) so will help if needed
-
That sounds awsome
And I think a good cetral large area like Q said where lots of peoples can get to would make a good two day event.
Locky your idea is great. If i was going I would offer to drive however you may like to consider the fact that I am 16.
-
that doesnt bother me lol
ever driven a bus before?
-
Na but can't be any worse than driving a Volvo :P
-
I was talking to hammy lol
-
Jees, I barely let him stilt by himself... let alone go on the road :D

-
Hammy do u remember the time we went go-karting for my birthday you went exactly the safest driver
-

adam cowie was a bus driver and now he is a controller so he can drive a bus if he can get the time off work if he books it in advance
-

Hi Guys
I know this is a little off topic guys but just so no one gets the thick end of the law you do all realise that unless you passed your test before 1st Jan 1997 you will need to have passed the D1 category and have it on your license
A lot of people have followed Dads advice and think they can just drive a 17 seater on there license (which Dad could) but they changed the law on us and anything over a certain weight/passanger complement or towing a braked trailer (over a certain weight) needs an extra test
Unless you have already taken the extra test of a PSV the cops can stop you and make everyone walk home :Claugh: plus a lot of shiny new points and a walletectomy for the driver (these fines are getting stupidly big now)
Enjoy the meet folks
Jason :Hoofies2: :CGEEK:
-
What Jason said is true. I vote Locky gets his old Vauxhall back and we all drive that instead.
-
on ice.
-
I say we all by 50cc mopeds :P
-
ive got a petrol stand up scooter if anyone wants to buy it lol
-
im sorry guys
is this a meet that has been confirmed??
wnad were the ruddy hell is it and when is it
-
nope but I nominate your kind self to organise it :)
-
Lol why don't you all meet at the top of a biiiiiiiig hill sit in an absolutely massive trolley and just roll down a hill dead fast :)
Rules are your not allowed breaks or steering :)
This would be a really good meet to travel in a mini bus going everywhere and my dad has a license to drive any vehicle under 7 tonne (he's a delivery driver) but he lives in Manchester and dosent know what these stilts are :) Hope I have helped you all out lots :P :Claugh:

What I was suggesting (what many of you are too young or too new at this sport to remember) is similar to the almighty bus trip that took place in March 2007.
At the time, the only real bocking gym was in Bradford and used by Stevie and B-Bounce (brucie and zeb if that means anything to you) and they agreed to let everyone come up to the gym for a weekend and sleep over in the gym.
7Leagues paid for a 17 seater mini bus which I hired in Cardiff and we loaded with some welsh bockers, headed to bristol and picked up some JJ's and kiola and then headed up to the midlands and grabbed Becky and then over to Leicester and picked up ET and that annoying kid who's name I cant remember (long gone).
Anyway it was an awesome weekend. Virtually none of us knew each other and those of us that are still around are good friends today still.
Now with local gyms being more available, and there being a lot more than 15 bockers wanting to be involved with this, I'm not sure it's practical to do again but if it is and a location was good, I'd definately be up for it. For what its worth, in 2007 I drove that minibus 960 miles in 48 hours, got very little sleep and actually managed not to bock the entire weekend. But it was still awesome.
Shame the audio has been removed but this is part 1 of a video evil mark took:

The annoying kid was a kid called Jake. I can't remember what his forum name was. I would like to point out that Jumpin Jak and I are labelled the wrong way round on that video. My 2 favourite moments of that trip will always be "That sprog posts a ton of crap" "Yes, I do", and "ET's gay? ET'S GAY?!" :Claugh:
-
ET's GAY!
:D
-
this sounds really good birmingham / bradford arn't to far away from me birmigham new street is about 2h30 by train from carlisle so if there was a meet there i could do it :D
-
I think the problem we face is a location and a good reason for choosing that location.
At the time, Bradford gym was the only place to bock inside that we knew of in the UK. It had the added bonus of a foam pit, trampoline, trampet and all the mats in the world plus we could sleep in it. Everyone really wanted to go there.
I dont know of any location or venue at the present time that offers a similar attraction to everyone.

Locky's house - It's full of s***s.
-
according to sprog locky's house and using my great powers of deduction could be full of s**ts, shots ,s***s , slaps, or stilts?
which one is the most likely?
-
because of the stupid stars what is S***s it cant be stilts because there is only 3 :P
Is it something rude :P
-
s***s = poops :P and the other s***s = an unfaithful man or lady.
so yes i was being rude :P
-
it's s-l-a-g-s :)
