Skate parks are ace, more damaged children than a Jim'll fix it reunion but they're fantastic for developing skills and confidence.

Discovered the local one by chance and now it's Hatter Jr's Sunday morning of choice when it's too grotty outside to go riding.

Sadly all the metalwork in my ankle means I'm expressely forbidden from having a go myself 🙁

Go when it is quite to avoid all the scooter kids. This is also when you will bump into a lot of the older riders in their late 30s 40s and 50s even. Brilliant fun especially if you ever rode when younger.

My 2 year old has discovered our local one, he flies around the smaller ramps on his balance bike with impressive bravado. Looks like so much fun, I'm so tempted to pick up a cheap BMX to have a go myself.

Can only use it at quiet times because he cant cope with the bigger, faster guys, so I should be able to learn without too many people laughing at my feeble attempts

Mr main didn't end up riding which was a disapointment to junior ws, but the local shredder, a lad called Tom justice was out a good few times, sublime and smooth, all in a very low shed where at times they looked very very close to the portal frame when hitting the bigger air. Bikes are available to rent and at 10 quid for four hours it really is a bargain!

We have a small skate/bmx parknear us. You have to get there early to let the little kids have a go. Last time we were there I was giving it the rad dad (jumping some drops on my p7))and one of the older kids advised me to drop my saddle. Ha. I SO want a bmx.

I'm on the local pump track most days on my BMX, the aches and pains can be tough, but that's what pain killers are for.

54 not out.

Harry Main is a charismatic guy, got some skills.
