All this talk of BMX tracks reminds me of when i was a kid and mum use to always tell us not to cross the main roads and ride too far. OK mum, we'd say, then head straight across the main road and ride about 20k's to the bmx track
We'd be gone all day and only returned home cos it was dinner time and we were STARVING!! Good times, even with all the cuts and bruises!
On the "people suing for stupid shit" subject, i heard the other day that Sydney is second only to New York for this sort of rubbish. Any wonder everyone is so paranoid about people being injured on their grounds/property.
I agree that Australia needs to HTFU and common sense needs to come into play more often. If we keep taking away a persons need to use common sense, people will lose the whole concept of having common sense........then we're in trouble!
Sorry if i got a little of topic
