BMX Bandits in the dirty South (east) aka Peckham Adults Accreditation/Coaching session

Al! Thanks for some ace coaching!

I have to say the whole Peckham BMX is so much better than Lee Valley from the price, the variety/quality/detail of coaching to even getting a card to prove your accredited. Ace stuff.

I'm going to go again on Weds am if anyone is up/available for a slackers session?

That was a really well- run session. Loved it.
What time is wed? I'd be up for it~

Thanks for the feedback. Weds morning is usually book and ride only as in hire the track. Having said that if no one booked on and staff available happy for individuals to ride. Give the track a call beforehand to check 07976340111

@althecoach that was a great session, got a lot of good advice out of it, it also changed my mind about 20" bmx - why do the XXL's have to be more expensive! grrr
Al, can you wear open face skate style lids on the track? Website seems to suggest you can.

@pootsmanuva cant do this wed, but up for moar sessions - this is so much easier to get to for afterworkers for everyone I think.. also I think you left your claw glove at the track. I think @kat has it and is gonna bring it to drinks on thurs.

I've got the glove. Will bring on Thurs

Have a look on Bmxtalk good deals on second hand bikes. Yes open faced skate style lids are allowed but I would strongly advise against. I use one but only when coaching.

Had a great morning on the track again. Thanks to @pootsmanuva for organising and to @althecoach for terrific guidance.

Good to get a feel for a cruiser, but def preferred the 20'. Looking forward to more.

I think @blowfish has the glove!

BMX was amazing although enormously sweaty ! Thanks ladies and Al for the raddest Sunday !
I'm up for some more, only evenings would do for me though :-(

Good day! Thank you all. Totally agree that this track was better thank you @althecoach and also for sorting me out even tho I was late
:) Good biscuits too @lucyh , hope you raised some good money today for Macmillan.

can't up load pix tho...

nope, will try and upload tomorrow, not working

Can't believe there was cake in the vicinity. I went on a cake sourcing mission after the session. Reason number 1 to visit the forum more frequently.

please tell me I'm not the only one walking like a weird duck today.

My legs are fine, it's my lower back that's killing me!!

Sounds like it was amazing. Is the next one is Oct 26?

Yep - last sunday of the month for 16+ novice coaching.

I just had a mild panic that Rapha Supercross was the same day, but thankfully the Supercross is on Saturday this year!

Ha! I'm disappointed/delighted you didn't get a snap of me at when the gate dropped and I did the exact opposite of what I was supposed to do i.e slam on my brake and not move an inch!!

Next time I'll get you doing a jump out of the gate @pootsmanuva -
watching you freeze that made me think I was going to do that too, it took all my might to keep fingers off the brake. So unnatural to trust a gate..

NOOOOOOOOO, my bmx fell through, my friend went to get it in the car and their Dad had thrown it out as it has been taking up space for years! I feel like I lost a friendship with a bike I never knew I could love.
Okay, back to a Gumtree mission.
