BMX - Chapeltown and a video:

We were down in Chapeltown at the weekend, working with loads of kids running a best trick and time trial competition at Charlton Brook. Thanks to the Friend of Charlton Brook for asking us to come along, and to all the riders who got involved.
We saw some amazing skills and tricks, reminding me of a video I saw on the tube last week:


Beautifully smooth natural looking riding, and ridiculously good tricks. And one of the best shot bmx videos I've seen in a long time. Check it out! Anyone out there got their own videos?

Come to Meersbrook Park this weekend!

We'll be running our Last Saturday Club in the Skate Bowl and on the Courts from 1pm while 3pm.As ever, it's all free. just turn up.




As usual, there'll be bikes and helmets to borrow. Consent will be needed if you've not been this year already, and everyone will have to give me some details for the register.

We've been working on some new games on bikes too - get ready for (no-contact) jousting and more...

In the meantime, have a look at this video of some dirt jumping from America...

Ride safe 'til then...

Summer Busy-ness!

We've been having a lot of fun on bikes already this summer, but not all of it in the Steel City. We've been to Festivals such as Cliffhanger and Peace in the Park. We've been working with the CTC and Sheffield Council Woodlands team doing mountainbike skills sessions. And we've been to various events round the country.

We followed Nigel Mansell on his recent charity ride around the UK- more details here
We took our portable North Shore course, including the see-saw above, to Cardiff, Chester and Blackpool. We had a really good day, working with different children from different cities was a pleasure. We were all very tired after long days, but it was a truly wonderful experience.

We'll be in Meersbrook Park on both Saturday and Sunday this weekend from 1pm on both days.

North Shore in New Zealand, Singletrack in South Yorks

Great little Video from PinkBike's Video of the Day. Full suspension MTBs on some singletrack and North Shore. Nice tunes, great landscape and some sweet riding. Enjoy.






And, a great video put up by Singletrack magazine of Robbie Rickman riding down Stanage Edge on a steel hardtail made by local bike company Cotic.
