Did deals with both Scunny and Seanshannon.  Both paid the money directly to my account almost instantly (Internet banking 2 - 0 Posting cheques), which meant I could send the stuff out straight away.  Too easy!

Did a deal with Scunny.  Paid literally as soon as he possibly could, let me know when he had by text, and then told me the next day when the post had arrived.  Couldn't have been better to have dealt with.

Yeah dude, I knew it would.  When I had it as a raw frame with black parts and white rims it was rad.  Hope it all works out for you anyway, they're sweet frames.

Flatlandism bought my Tierra off me.  He didn't stab me when I met him to swap the frame for the money, nor did he hit me over the head with the Tierra, knock me out and take his money back, so all in all:  Trustworthy!

Bearing in mind almost all the threads in there are from the Hate forum, wouldn't it make sense to have it as only viewable if you're logged in too?  Just in case the content of some of them might get flagged up by whichever websense companies (whatever they're called) happen to look through them?

Are we going to have a ban on the many threads about people smoking weed too?

Ah, fair enough.  Thanks for the info, I'd always wondered why you'd want to restrict searches.

I'd have thought the fact you have to wait for 20 seconds (or is it 40?) between searches would've been more annoying?  Certainly ****s me off

News / cantalowes opening jam

« on: April 02, 2007, 07:37:31 PM »

i'm pretty sure that cantelowes is open to bikes, esp as it specifies bmx in the opening jam details!

but it does now seem to have fencing/lockable gate surrounding it so it could be subject to opening times.

on a downer note a couple of mates went for a look a few weeks ago and had some numpty skater shout 'no pegs! no pegs!' at them. then he went onto say how 'you coan see the burnside influence' of the park... :rolleyes: somehow i can't see them not allowing pegs, who's gonna stop us?

while it looks ok, canelowes is a zillion miles away from burnside... only time will tell how well the bowl flows, i reckon it's too small. but i do think the park section looks like fun.

as i'm moving to north london in a few months this will be one of my local spots so hopefully it'll be ok.

oh and i think the skate plaza is still just a skate plaza, but i'm not really fussed about that.
it's a shame, but as no riders (that i know of) were involved in getting it built leave it to the people who got it sorted.

Although from reading the thread on here earlier, BMXers did get involved early on but were told they wouldn't be needed, back BEFORE it was decided it was skate-only?  So it's more a case of BMXers being fucked over big style by the people at the top.

With my complete lack of knowledge about distances north of the river, how far d'you reckon it'd be from the Waterloo area riding to Cantelowes?  I know it doesn't take that long to get up to Paddington/Oxford St area, so would it be that much further?

Yeah, I knew they were just jam times but it was more that the way that London skateparks never seem to be that simple these days I thought I'd better check (see also: Bay66, London Bridge Skateplaza)...

Does anyone know what the state of play is with opening times on normal days?  And whether BMXers are gonna be fully allowed in it?

Haha, truth.  

Pity I'm back in Wales for the week, would've been cool to go to that even if I'd have developed my usual skatepark apathy within about 2 minutes of trying to get a run in...
