Forget the bullshit, I'm thinking of doing one of those bbc video nation shorts on stunting. The aim is to try and get you guys some more exposure to the public. No number plates, not talk on illegal riding, just your love for the sport. i would like to get as many groups as poss involved, awol, 444, verticals, etc. What's your views?

I get to choose if it goes online, so I can see if they edit in a decent way, or try making us look bad.

 

"We want everyday tales of people's lives in Beds, Herts and Bucks." they basically want to see some old lady watering the plants, going to morning mass, lunch time coffee meeting with the ladies and then back home to feed the chickens and let the goats out..... don't think they're after a bunch of illegal stunt riding

 

So it'll be something new and different.

Video nation is for across the UK mate, not just herts and beds. I just found it there, that's all

 

stunt riding is not illegal!

 

 

no but its not... Sparks once told me, its not illegal, its where your doing it that makes it illegal...
The guy is a philosopher (spelling?) (or is it peadophile, i get confused)

 

True, but UT said he was gonna follow AWOL and co too..

 

I want as many people and groups involved as poss!! Just want to test the water first, then worry about where we'll film it!!

 

and so u never pull a wheelie on the road ever ?
i dont have a van or car
and ride every day
u make me sound like a looon
and my honda is a good girl
theres a time and place for every thing

 

O.k well i fully support UT with this, whatever u need mate just give me shout.

It maybe that nothing comes from it, but maybe it might work out o.k

 

im in ......oh sorry, i forgot im just the token ..lol

 

I'll help out if I can. Not sure how the bbc of all people will take to it. Your best bet is channel 4, they air all sorts of random crap.

 

did some one say random crap

 

Cheers mate hopefully it'll work out fine!!

 

Don't forget that you can't show any footage at all of any stunting of any kind on what looks like a public road - unless it's to criticise and show how stupid the riders are...

There are other possible hassles, too, but that's the main one.

 

Had thought of that mate, after that chat we had last time I had a idea of doing a tv program!!

Like I say, this is what I need, peoples views so if we do it, cos it is us, not me, then I don't want anyone getting nicked or made to look like *******.

 

Alstar mate don't take everything I say as a personal dig... look at what Veggie posted, that's what I meant, I'm just not very good with words... I'm talkling from a legality point of view from the BBC, they'd never broadcast anything that involves public roads, so if UT was to do a film it'd have to be ALL in a legal off-road environment. That's all I was getting at... I'm all for the vid! but just remember if UT wants a chance at getting it shown........

 

Well we need to look a off-road place to shoot it, with or without the owners permission , when to do it and who's gonna play for the camera

 

i say do it, but where

 

yer i say do it to. maybe get the riders at there own spots not just at 1 place.
