Just seen a load of pics from new tracks being built on BMX talk. These tracks are getting more tech than ever and our track just does not come up to standard. Not wanting to start the old "our track is crap" debate, but we need to do something, not just once or twice a year! With a few mods & re shaping the track could be a whole lot better. Best get that new track management team in place!

With the AGM coming up this Friday its time for those with an issue and a positive outlook to come along and make themselves heard.
Lets get this track sorted so that people want to travel. I spoke to a number of experience riders at Dagenham this weekend who said they wouldnt be coming to Braintree this weekend as they dont like the track.

Crying or Very sad what a superb track, if only Braintree could have one like that.
Like Jools said , AGM just around the corner so EVERYBODY should attend and have some input into YOUR club and perhaps our dreams might come true. Braintree track is old and tired and is kept in a reasonable condition due to the hard work of a dedicated few. IF we could have a new track then i think it is every members duty to help keep it up to a high standard.
I think the current track should be leveled and rebuilt with input from everybody within the club. What do you think?

We all agree the track should be leveled but its not gonna happen with a budget of £6.72. However with a few people who know how a jump should look & ride, we can gradually work our way around the track improving what we have. Not ideal but a start.
