Nice little video of BKSA Blackpool guys.

Check it out

Lol, the promo idea being that we wernt alowed to have any safety gear on, no harness, no seatbelt, no impact etc etc. just a kite and a buggy. Making the sport look free and accessable to everyone

Sure was fun

Just to show that really is me, heres one from the front

My vote is for Kayaking - brilliant fun, and ALL the family can join in.........and Ark probably has enough kayaks for the whole of the ESC (his midlife crisis!)

You can go places no one else can get to - no traffic - no people - is really is brilliant fun and good exercise too!

Strangely I was round Jimbo's earlier in the week, and had a look through the Jan edition of Boat trader, but did start at the back in the £50K + section.

Amazed at how much power boat you can get for not a lot of money, would be no good for fishing though.
