Re: 2014 FOC-U Bike Picture Challenge - NorthWestern - 17-11-14

yeah that's the one although the last time I went there things were all in black and white...  I can't remember if you can get near it on a bike to take a pic.

Re: 2014 FOC-U Bike Picture Challenge - NorthWestern - 17-11-14

pfft went to Norton Priory (which used to be part of an Abbey and has some ruins there - bit of a long shot) but couldn't get anywhere near the ruins etc


Took this though

This is a statue of local hero and football legend Sir Tom Finney modelled after his iconic "Splash" photograph.  This is outside PNE this morning... My bike displaying a weeks worth grime!

Ah, sorry hairnet, that challenge already done this round. Seems I missed it on the last leaderboard, apologies  :o

And apologies to dazza, who won that one. Will update scores retrospectively (page 15).

You'll have to pick a different one, please.

Re: 2014 FOC-U Bike Picture Challenge - hairnet - 08-12-14

a sporting arena that doesnt use a ball or any type of bat  :lol

Re: 2014 FOC-U Bike Picture Challenge - NorthWestern - 08-12-14

Not sure if this qualifies as it isn't an "arena" in the modern sense....  I couldn't think of anything else here that would be an arena not featuring balls/bats, perhaps the biggest would be the Manchester Velodrome.  Most non ball grounds - athletics/cycleing here have closed/moved to the huge UCLAN sports complex and is more of a campus than an actual arena...


This is at Fishwick BMX track (a national race track) off London Road, Preston.  I was going to attempt a crowd pleasing backward 360 off the table top but alas I couldn't get the bike through that gate there....

The club used to be at Deepdale where my brother and I would take our BMX's, it was bulldozed to make way for a Sainsburys before reopening here in 2005 or so.  It is itself built on the old running track.

Re: 2014 FOC-U Bike Picture Challenge - stevierst - 08-12-14

Bloody  hell, don't leave your bike there at Fishwick for long, some bugger will rob it!!!
