One would think if the story is starring Linky, that its not going to be a get-the-dangerous-hooligans-off-our-roads beat up. Maybe theyl shred the Gold Coast Council for being all over the place.

Everybody knows city councils around australia have lost the plot. If there was a section of government that shouldnt be able to legislate,.... its them.

Im very interested to see how this pans out.
I dont think the public truly back the desires of city councils. We all know they are petty and incompetent.

not to mention greedy

Turned out good; but pleeeeease tell me someone is about to give the council a thought out planned proposal of how to forward downhill on the goldy and everyone isn't sitting on their butts waiting for someone else to do it!!
John Wayne is about to start on a campaign to close "problem" skate parks on the Goldy beginning with Discovery Drive and we have been the only people to raise an objection. Close the skateparks and welcome short boards to the streets in numbers.
Why don't we do it? quite simply we were about to release a piece about what we are doing at Newton's but as was pointed out to us when asked who we treat on the Gold Coast we have to reply, apart from Kurt, who we sponsor we treat no Gold Coast skaters, Brisbane and further North travel to us and across the boarder in NSW on a regular basis but no Gold Coast skaters and only two Goldy skaters signed up for Newton's sports package; we have no DH credibility with the council. So who has the proposal or are we right where we were last year and the year before?

My view is that maybe the Gold coast Council could learn something by taking a leaf out of the Bathurst Local council's approach to this great sport, and SUPPORT IT!!!!!. Linky you are the man :)

Erm well if helmets dont protect us from crashes at 50kmh, then how are we still alive after having crashed at TWICE that speed? maximum retardation from City council there.
