Bobs Jam - Version 2...
Thanks to the ever so predictable English weather, Bobs Jam version 1 was unfortunately rained off. Due to the mother of all thunderstorms the day before the jam, the jumps ended up very wet! So instead of completely giving up, the Derelict boys have been busy and have rescheduled Bobs Jam version 2 for this Saturday 4th July!
In preperation Matt and Bob have been running the jumps in, and throwing in a few shapes while they are at it! Roll on Saturday....see you all there!!

Chelt Jammin...
Massive stunts, Mad heckling, Sweet ramps, BBQ and boozey looseness in the idyllic surroundings of Pittville park in Cheltenham..
Guaranteed to be good/loose times. There is even a huge lake where you can rent rowing boats right next to the ramps.
Spread the word. Safe

Poland trails...
Ive had a few emails from a friendly chap named Peter, who lives over in Poland. It seems he is a fan of Segment and what we are up to over here in the UK, so hopefully we might see some Segment product represented in Poland some time soon!
Peter also sent through a few pics of himself riding his local trails...which look pretty good!

Tricky Rikki...
It seems that every session at Harrow lately, something gets shut down! Wether its a new line, new gap, transfer or trick its all going on at a park that was built so long ago there are dinosaur footprints up the transitions!!
This time it was Rikki Gunners turn, with a new twist on the now infamous 'bowl doubles'. After years of looking at the possibilities, Rikki finally overcame his and everyone elses fears and tackled them backwards [shallow to very deep!!]. No one has ever done this transfer, and it is obvious why, as the lip is kinked and random and the landing is as steep as you like! Not an easy task!!

What you see on run up [??]...
Chillin...job done!...

Back to School....
Remember when you had that dream pump track in your school playing fields, so that everyone thought you were cool in your class because you could manual the whole last straight??? No, me neither!!! But a few lucky kids now have that opportunity thanks to those bad boys of the North - Clark and Kent! We need more of these...[and a time machine to go back a few years!!!]..
Clark - headmaster!!...
This in school...nuts!!...
What a treat...

Harrow Death gap!!...
While having a few chilled sessions down at Harrow park, a few challenges get called out, new lines, new manuals and the odd gap. Last night was no different, except this time, the snake 'death' gap was called and after a few run ups, Hayes resident toboganist Richard Reed stepped up to the plate and got it done [s first at the park - gap never done before!!].
This gap is super gnarly, and to see how rough, steep and lipless it really is, you have to go and take a look. Check out the pics below, but believe me it was sooooo scary!!...

Face Bangers...
Its that time again, that the infamous Bang Face comes back to town, but this time, it brings with it a few guests.....namely the Chelt BMX massive!! So its a Chelt BMX vs Segment mash off!!
Segment have the upper hand, as we are locals to the 'ravecore extravaganza', while Chelt are 'smash unit' virgins, which could cause a few problems, especially when it comes to the inflatables, the outfits and more importantly the running man!!...
