REDMAX @ ROLLERBURN IS COMING ! BE THERE !

We are now having a stand and some bikes on show at ROLLERBURN , Sat 19th Newark Showground ! Thanks to all for the help to make it happen . If u wanna collect parts there , just let me know in advance !











Rollerburn is a Sideburn Mag production that promises to be the best show in town for November !




This is their own words on the subject -



Sideburn magazine, the world’s most suave motorcycle magazine, is organising and promoting a one-off, cross-genre event to go down in history.
Rollerburn is a festival of two-wheeled death traps and roller derby vixens. On Saturday 19 November 2011, at Newark Showground, Nottinghamshire, we will host nine hours of family entertainment incorporating a full roller derby match, followed by the world’s first (and probably last) Indoor Rollerball drag race: three lightning fast racers riding three motorcycles towing three fearless roller girls. One winner.
One of the confirmed racers is Guy Martin, arguably Britain’s favourite bike racer, Isle of Man TT hero, star of TT 3D – Closer to the Edge and the BBC primetime series – The Boat That Guy Built. His attendance guarantees a sell-out crowd.

In addition we have:
•Invite-only custom show of the finest custom bikes
•A live set from the UK’s premier garage ‘craperet’ act, The Stags
•A further two top bands
•Slalom skateboard demo
•Rollergirl sprint races
•Indoor flat track demo
•Top DJS including Sir Johnny Alpha
•Loads of vendor stalls
•Bar and food dealers
•Our favourite artists on display
•Launch of Sideburn 9

RIP MARCO - the only rider worth watching in GP's.

Very sad day for a boring , depleted Moto GP series anyway .
They need guys like him , yet they spent all year putting him down - for having fighting spirit !
Now it'll be grey and boring without him , Stoner and Honda =boring .
Viva Marco - you rocked , hope they are warming a bike up for you wherever you've gone .

SUNNY SCUNNY -THIS WEEKEND !





















So if you fancy something a little nearer (than europe), how about Shorttrack racing at Scunthorpe this sunday ?

There'll be REDMAX THUNDERBIKES , shorttrack and restricted classes and novice and juniors too .

And as always close hard racing to keep you on the edge of your seat !

Not only that , but Boasties got a couple more indoor races planned over the winter at arena uk near Grantham (near A1).

See all the info at-


Also you can see televised meetings on MOTORS TV this year starting @ november see the web site for details on that too .

Lastly - CONGRATULATIONS go out to Aiden Collins on winning the SHORTTRACK GNC CHAMPIONSHIP and to ANTHONY BROWN for winning the REDMAX THUNDERBIKES !

Well done guys , and there are clubman championships to be sorted out at Scunthorpe this weekend , get up there n cheer em all on !

EUROPEAN FLATTRACK ROUND 7






The Mefo Flattrack championship is always a good spectacle , hard riding , great tracks and a fantastic european adventure if you fancy a road trip !

We did the Czech round ( 1 mile track !) a while back with Anthony from Co-built and it was indeed an epic 1000 mile trip , never to be forgotten !



However some are much nearer and i know some English racers were only doing the Euro racing series for the buzz !

So if you get the chance to see one or even ride one - go for it !


Got an event report here from Jan - who runs the series , but don't seem to be able to load it at mo . I'll keep trying tho , but visit - www.flattrack.eu

for the report and more info !
