So far, with financial constraints being what they are, I'm going to try for the Slalom Brunch which Ramon confirmed as 1st & 2nd May with the Tunnel race at the end of May, possibly Gruningen, Latvia in July and Hog Hill in Aug. Anything else is speculation at the moment as I've got a summer holiday with my kids to pay for yet as well!Mike

Only those who have pre-arranged to go down on Thursday can do so. I will be arriving on site Friday lunchtime.
On arrival you will need to park in the “Production Car Park” Then go to the main entrance where your name will be on a list, but ONLY IF YOU HAVE SIGNED UP!
(If you have not yet paid by PayPal (we know who you are) we will collect your money at the camp site.)
You will be asked to show some form of ID before being admitted.
Once in the show ground turn right and proceed to the Event Office for “competitor registration”. Here you will need to fill in a registration form before being issued your wristband – DO NOT LOSE IT! You will then be able to go back out to your car via the Production Car Park Gate by showing your wristband. You will have to carry you stuff to the Competitor Campsite as cars are not permitted on the showground. In fact vehicles are not allowed to move anywhere on the showground during the event opening hours - unless of course in an emergency or they are flying through the air off ramps etc.!
Click here for link
You will find site maps available at the Event Office; the Competitor Camp site is on the far side of the main event itself (almost in line with the office) beyond the main arena/grandstand. You will only be able to access the camp site by showing your Competitor wrist band. There is 24 hour security around the perimeter.
We will have our own Loo and Shower block – don’t get too excited The Ritz it ain’t, but it is not used by the hordes either!
For those of you that came last year we will try to get the spot we were then, along the hedge – look for Clingfilm’s’ large trailer tent!
Please remember:
Some ID
Something for the bar-b-q
A gazebo - if you have one that you can bring?
A Chair(s) – stops yer bum getting cold!
Tents – but you know that right?
A broom - if you can fit one in? (The road may be a bit gritty at first – it is an agricultural showground after all!)
Air bed pumps! (Mick)
Please bring cones if you have some - rather too many than not enough, we may want to set up a Grom course?
I think that’s about it? If you have problems with admission please call me: 07765 236997
See you there.
Cheers.

TV at NASS.
It is the German GP so I will have a tiny TV with me if you want the Tour.
Barbie Q - and food poisoning
We want to have a big cook up this year, did not quite get to it last time.
If you arrive on Friday make sure you bring meat that is frozen in a cooler box. It should survive 24 hours to be cooked on Saturday. Bring extra for those who arrive on Thursday, Rob and myself especially.
I will be there Thursday night so will not bring meat but will bring a load of bread and salad stuff etc. Any others who go Thursday bring veggie stuff that does not go off.
Alternatively we will need someone to do a shopping run on Saturday afternoon.
I have a large BBQ and carcoal etc but feel free to bring your own.
Anyone a music system and batteries.
Cheers
Chris

NASS - Gazebo's/Spare a ride?

Rain or shine we all like a bit of shelter from the elements so if you have a Gazebo that you can bring with you please do - the more the merrier. We will need them for the PA, Timing Table/Race control as well as general shade/shelter during racing.
Does anyone going to NASS from London have a spare seat for Chris HG on Friday?
If so please mail me at the above mail address.
Thanks

What you need to know!
Unlike last year we will not have access to the site on Thursday night there will however be a couple of logistical exceptions.
Please note: Cars are not allowed onto the site, you will not be allowed to park next your tent. (This was the case last year too!)
On arrival you will need to park in “Production Parking” then go to the Main Entrance, where your name will be on a list of competitors (but only if you have signed up!) and you will need to show some form of ID to prove who you are. You then go to the Event Office to get your competitor wristband. (If you look on the link below there is a site map showing where things are.)
You will need to carry your camping stuff to the athlete camping area. The campsite will be guarded by security and you will only get in with by showing your competitor wristband.
PLEASE NOTE: Access to all "competitor only areas" will be by your wristband - so don't lose it!!
On Saturday evening we plan to have a "Racers BBQ". Details to follow shortly on that.
We have a “Relaxation Station” kindly provided by Paul Nash of Glastonbury Ales and he will be on site with his crew for all of our “race fuel” needs!
There will also be the “Relentless Athlete Lounge” where you will also be able to quench your thirst, get snacks and fruit - or have a massage or a dip in the hot tubs!
What else is going on?
For those of you that can skate a bit of street bring your board, there will be a number of Pro and Am “Spot Comps” with cash, games consoles etc. to be won – these will be 20 min jam format.
Horse-boarding – yes horse and rider pulling rider on mountain board!
FMX Demos – men on motorcycles doing insane sh*t!
Goliath Ramp Comp – NASS own Mega Ramp, Skate, BMX and streetboard comps.
Skateboard Street, Vert and Freestyle comp – featuring Bart and Paul Brunninkhuis from Holland – you may have already met Bart at the Blighty Championships (they will also be racing!)
BMX Street, Vert and Dirt Comps.
In-line Street and Vert Comps
Roller Derby - Crazed women in fishnets racing to be the best (Google it, you won’t be disappointed). Think roller disco meets WWF… oh yes!
Oh and if that isn’t enough The Loaded Girls will be having a wet T-shirt competition!
For the music acts and further information on the events and how to get there then look on the main website:Click here for link
Any questions please post up here or contact me on the above addy.
Cheers
Rob(LSD)
P.S. Before we spend money hiring - do you or someone you know have a PA system that we could borrow?

If anyone travelling to NASS has a spare seat/space that they could offer to another skater in exchange for a bit of petrol money could you post up here. Much appreciated – lets do our bit to reduce our events carbon footprint!
(Cue Sam’s photo of Pelle crammed into the back of a Mazda to illustrate the afore mentioned “space”!)
