We had to make sure the lot was zoned industrial, we talked to the VP of the school, we also got the cheif of police on board. We ended up getting a contract with the state stating the terms of use and each parties responsabilities. We recieved laminated cards that we needed to carry on us incase someone did a check to see if we were allowed.

The basic requirements were that myself and Kip (kiprocket on here) had sole descression over who was allowed to ride the lot. If we siad no, they could get charged for tresspassing. Certain limitations and rules applied though. The bikes were required to be caged, not burnouts, each bike was required to have liability ins, valid motorcycle license, we had to be out of there by 9pm (noise laws) and we had to carry our own group liability ins. We looked into several options there, but there are a lot of really cheap bullshit policies out there you can get. I don't know how well thay actually are if you had to make a claim, but it works when needed to fill that requrement.

The downside to all this was that we never took into consideration the old folks home down the block! They kept calling the cops about the hooligans down the road. The cops would tell them it was legal nothing they can do. Well those old farts starting calling the city counsil members and bitching. The city put pressure on the school to revoke our contract, and well, it didn't take long before we were no longer welcome to stunt there anymore.

So moral of the story is... old people need more social activities in the old folks home so they don't spent the day staring out the windows!

It was a FREAK ACCIDENT. He looped it and his foot got caught in the chain and sprocket. Not cool for ANYONE to be talking **** as for this could happen to ANY ONE OF US.

All in all, I would say this was positive coverage for us. From what I heard from several people the cops were cool as hell about the whole situation. As someone above mentioned, the news casters didnt bad mouth stunters. In fact mentioned that stuntriding is NOT illegal. Also suggested that stunters need a place to practice. Maybe this will open the eyes up to the cops and open some doors.

Oh yea, I got pics of the guys foot. Pretty gross. Should I post them?
