Also, check out this photo of Wildcat in fancy dress from last Saturday’s Boyley Jam - this could have been his first or eighth attempt of sending himself out of the soon-to-be-defunct Hastings skatepark. Thanks to Ant from Seventies for the sweet pic (click to enlarge)
We very rarely do the whole re-post thing here at Source BMX but there are few videos doing the rounds on the internet featuring our team riders so we thought it warranted a post… check them out below.
First up is a sweet edit of Jimmy Rushmore and our very on Jon Robinson courtesy of the only union which isn’t on strike at the moment.
Also getting some Internet views at the moment are source team riders Lil’ Phil and Josh Heritage who have a couple of top 5’s on the 4down site thanks to the piemeister.
This Years Boyley Jam will be held on Saturday the 21st of August!!! As always this is going to a blast and will be held on both the existing wooden ramps and the new concrete set up. See the poster below for more info.
We have just returned from a long weekend filming in Normandie today. Trips are always sweet and this was no exception, enough laughs were had by all. There is a little photo gallery with a few Rat snaps from the weekend over on the photography page - CHECK IT OUT HERE
A crew of us have been in Normandie for a couple of days now filming some clips for the upcoming SourceBMX Normal Vol.1 video. Between getting pulled over by the Police and searched for drugs because of Wildcats drug dealer car we have been riding some street and skateparks in Le Harve. On Day 1 some random guy spotted us riding the skatepark and took us to his trails for an evening session and a bonfire! Cheers Man!!!!!
A small group of local BMXers have been riding the new concrete park and causing permanent damage to the concrete which is not yet set. Concrete takes a few weeks to set hard and then lasts for decades so by jumping the fence and riding it now it is ruining things for everyone. So far several sections have had to be relaid which has put the opening back by a couple of weeks and cost thousands of pounds which will come out of the budget for the huge new phase 2 plaza which should be built next summer. Please be patient and stop ruining it for everyone.
To make matters worse, one of the key players in making this skatepark happen (and our own bowl when we built it) has been getting abuse from a small group of riders (who know you you are) which is almost too ridiculous to believe. A lot of people have put hundreds of hours of their own time in to finally getting a new park and they must be shown some respect. We can’t believe this is happening and it’s got to stop or else these people will be named and shamed and will made to look like idiots for wrecking the opportunity for Hastings to have the best skatepark in the UK when phase 2 is completed next year. If it continues, phase 2 will simply not happen.
Sorry for the rant but what’s happening is frustrating for everyone involved and it’s got to be sorted out.
We’re already setting up stand down at NASS for this weekend with some bangin’ deals going down on quality BMX products and shoes/t-shirts etc. Come check out our stand to grab a bargain, hang out and say hello.
We’ll also be running a free entry competition to win yourself £100 to spend at The Source so that’s worth a visit at least! Glowsticks at the ready!
The shop and mail-order will be running as usual with Wildcat and Maggot running the show down there so no need to worry about missing out, all orders will be dispatched as normal!
We’ve just received copies of the new Cult BMX DVD - click HERE for details.
If anyone wants to check it out, swing by our Hastings store at around 4pm on Saturday afternoon and we’ll play our copy on the big screen in the shop.
It’s a few days late but we’ve picked a winner in the competition to win to free weekend tickets to NASS.
We had a few entries which varied from people riding to a cat wrapped up in a Source t-shirt. Obviously it was pretty difficult to choose between such random entries so we picked a winner at random……that being Scott Groves with his photo of David Sekinger. We’ll be in touch about getting tickets out in time for NASS on July 9-11th. We have a stand there so come and say hello if you’re going to be there….and pick up a bargain at the same time.
So then it was fathers day yesterday so what better way to celebrate the made-up bullshit day than going to the trails with five times Dad Ricky Bollington! The Ratt has been killing this place for years now and they and himself are still going strong - check out the snap below. When the Ratt isn’t building the trails he is building your wheels here at SourceBMX.
In other related Dad news, Marc Goodwin set up a brand new Fit Benny L this weekend, Just in time for the Source trip to France this coming weekend - Looks Dialed.
