Prudential Ride London: 3rd & 4th August
Warning! - If you are thinking about hiring a car, or staying in Central London, then please be aware that there will be Road Closures on 3rd and 4th of August for a Road Cycling race.
As part of the one-year-on celebrations, the centre of this will be the Olympic Park (Stratford) area. The closures might hinder those travelling in by car from the Central London/ Surrey directions.
Please take a look at the attached link so that you can plan your approach to Hog Hill without hindrance. We will put up more details when they are released by TFL.
Pavel 2013 Team Announced
We have a lot of people in the Team and on the New Page we made different divisions.
This is the new group which is called OTC - Off The Couch Racing. The Colorado guys came up with that description. You will find old faces in there who really race as much anymore as they did a few years ago. Some of them don't even really stay in touch. Still I feature those characters as team members in this section.

The International Slalom Skateboarding Association (ISSA) Board of Directors and its European Status Marshals have awarded The 2013 European Championships of Slalom Skateboarding to LONDON.
It will be the first time since 1986 that the European Championships have been held in England. Back then it was held in Warrington, Cheshire, and was part of a larger skateboarding championship which also featured halfpipe, freestyle and high jump events. This time around the championships will be held at Redbridge Cycling Centre “aka Hog Hill”, which lends itself ideally to slalom racing (along with a number of other gravity sports). It has great on site facilities including a very well appointed cafĂ©.
The European Championships are assigned as an ISSA Major Status race. Only one race event per continent is granted Major status each year and as such we expect to attract the fastest racers not only from Europe but the America’s too! It promises to be one of, if not The most competitive event of the year.
Over the three days riders will compete in three different slalom disciplines Giant, Hybrid and Tight. So get ready to witness some super-fast high adrenaline fuelled racing next summer – make a note in your diaries now!
