Evmk Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Well, just had an early morning jump sesh over Landseers and all I will say is, I'm glad my controller batteries ran out before I broke anything else ! Breaking stuff is all part of the hobby mate lol I don't go to landseer anymore, there is just not enough for me and my Baja lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rawuk Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Breaking stuff is all part of the hobby mate lol I don't go to landseer anymore, there is just not enough for me and my Baja lol So where do you go now then, must admit I think I would like somewhere a little less "smashing".

Hendo7249 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I think it's safe to say that my marder aint welcome in Christchurch park in ipswich, warden kindly asked me to move, thought I'd bring it while mrs and kids were playing in park.

stretch Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 oh dear did he give a reason? where you breaking any bylaws? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo7249 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I checked at the front gate and there nothing on the notice boards, so I went in started bashing, kept it outta the way off everyone, but he said sorry we don't allow that sort of thing in here, he wasn't rude or anythin but I just didn't think it would be an issue as the park ain't exactly small!

Rawuk Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Blimey, bit harsh for a park that big! That's what I do over Hollywells park. Strap the buggy to the back of the push chair, use only when there aren't many people about. In fact that's where I got 6ft of air of a Oaktree root and smashed it in under 5 minuets of drive time. Any other good places to go? Just bought a bag full of new parts and raring to bash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo7249 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 If I get chance I may pop down to chantry and see what that's like, driven past it couple of times, looks pretty big, I just want somewhere to do a few jumps and a bit of a loop to drive round.

stretch Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share Posted May 13, 2013 chantrys ok when the grass is cut, it's nice and big and bumps and dips, there's also the BMX track at the other end. May take a wander down there next weekend if the weathers nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evmk Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 So where do you go now then, must admit I think I would like somewhere a little less "smashing".

Rawuk Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Yeah, have used him for a few bits so far. Really helpful and friendly, same as Bury st Edmunds shop model junction. Was just wondering if there's a local shop to us Ipswich folk ? Used to be galaxy but assuming nothing has replaced it?
