Well chaps - I am hooked. Cashed in the wife's coaching session birthday present for a day at Corby with Tony and Mark on the BMX and was blown away.

Most fun I have had on 2 wheels for a long time..

See link to Tony's blog for some pics and a video clip ( of me still a long way from styling it ) which gives a good view of the jump line, which on reflection is a thing of beauty (but at the time was pretty intimidating). I draw your attention to the first picture where after about 2 hours I am completely shot (sweat on forearms you know you are working hard!).

Completely knackered at the end of it (no push ups for a rest).

We have to go there... a lot more often. I have some holiday to use and will be taking a day a week off for the next few weeks to return. Jon dust off the bmx, you jump bike guys - pump up those tyres and get on board. (I am looking at Tuesdays starting week after next - now until Xmas)

If biking is in my heart - I think BMX is in my soul!

Corby is sweet!
Word of advice....DONT go in school holidays! Its dangerously busy.
Ive seen loads of smashes into each other. Take a day off work and go. Infact, I have 4 days left to take. Anyone fancy it?

Sweet Nige, was that your first time at Corby? Thats pretty mad progression, that jump line is deffo pretty big and intimidating, also airing out of the bowl in the 3rd pic?
