Event Description
Early morning freeride down the hill.
- If you can't take on hill climb with ease, stay away.
- If you can't foot brake or slide at speed, stay away.
- If you don't wish to wear a helmet, pads and gloves, stay away.
- If you have trouble staying in your lane, stay away.
- If you think I'm an ass... Stay Away :p
Now that is sorted... I have in the pipeline a full fledge road shut down, haybaled, leather fullface wearing, point scoring race!
So, donations towards that would be welcome, but completely up to you! I would however prefer donations of time when it does happen and for any help along the way you could offer.
Format:
- Get there at 5am - The gate will be closed
- Walk to the top and shred down to the bottom. Repeat.
- 6am - Start doing car trips up until the traffic gets to intense.
- 9am - If I still haven't made any headway with the very helpful council that sends me in loops by then, storm the council fortress with skaters and demand a straight answer from them!
Any other suggestions I will take into consideration!
Total Distance:
2.00km | 1.24mi
Starting Altitude:
191m | 627ft
Finishing Altitude:
59m | 194ft
Average Gradient: 6.6%
Elevation Loss: 132m | 433ft
Surface Type:
Smooth Bitumen / Asphalt (Not so smooth now)
Making headway with the legit race.
Now have someone who knows what they are doing with maps on the team!
There should be some activity with the council and police soon enough, if we can cause as much of a disturbance at once, they will give in eventually!!!!

How good is your line and tuck?
It's way harder that hill climb.
I would have to say, 'if you have to ask, don't come.'
This is a public road, you need to stick to your lane around some tight corners at a decent speed.

I also need it on a day that the council office is open, pretty much the reason for the skate (that and to get the hype and stoke up!).
It would probably be better to have a group of older guys backing me than a ton of young guys too, purely for the idiotic council to see we are not 12 year olds being stupid.
When the full fledged race goes down (outlaw or legit) it will be on a holiday or weekend so we can get as many younger guys watching and racing as possible!

Come along after 6 and watch if you can. Look, learn, practice, shred! Then help us get the council to co-operate!

Sounds like a great plan, but that could also lead to fines, you still have to provide your name and place of living to get pre-paid...
I'll be sending out more e-mails soon to try and get this sorted!
