Nottingham's Legendary Skate and BMX Spot, Broadmarsh Banks has be wiped off the face of the earth.
These were located at the back of the BroadMarsh Bus Station, nicely tucked away in a nice central location.
Were the main users consulted and how it would effect our long established groups, and the Council want more people to be active in their leisure time.
Wasn't these humps an Architural Art Form where people could expressed themselves on. We happened to use skateboards and BMX's as our tools and the Humps were our canvas.
This has been a great skate spot since the 1970's and later the BMXers used them from the early 1980's. Riders have travelled from a far to rider these unique humps and lines.
One of the 1970's better and useful Art forms which should have remained and been incorporated into a modern scheme.
Please read the following post on RADBMX for the History and future proposals for a possible replacement city centre spot.
