Re:24hr Top Gear Ultraskate - April 10/11 - 20:19 13 Feb 10 That looks like fun!

Although I needed 10 hours sleep to recover from a sunday stroll... not sure I could go for 24 hours!

Re:24hr Top Gear Ultraskate - April 10/11 - 20:28 13 Feb 10 Keith, you beat me to it!

Right people, we need you!!

LONG DISTANCE SKATING FOR CHARITY ON THE TOP GEAR TEST TRACK AT DUNSFOLD PARK NEAR GUILDFORD, IN SURREY!!!

Here's the thing - we've organised 24 hours on the track used by THE STIG and the Top Gear drivers!

I skated the track last week and it is perfect! Flat, wide and unbelievably smooth. The main runway is the width of six motorway lanes, loads of space and as grippy as any surface that I have ever skated. This place is going to be fast and fun.

The chance to skate for 24 hours on a private track is pretty unsual to say that least but we're doing it... skating for 24 hours around the clock, starting at noon on Saturday 10th April...

We're invited to pitch our tents beside the track during the skate so you can chill out when you need to, and they are even going to put the runway lights on for us - it is going to be awesome.

We're doing all this for charity, to raise money for the Haiti disaster so check out the website, get your sponsorship together and come and skate for as long and as far as you like on the Top Gear track... hang on... did I mention that we're going to be skating on the Top Gear track???!!!!

What do you reckon? We have permission for 250 skaters to skate for 24 hours or as long as you like!!

We need rollerskaters, inliners, longboarders and skaters of all kinds!

Please check out the website for more info...

See you there!
Jo

Re:24hr Top Gear Ultraskate - April 10/11 - 02:12 14 Feb 10 Fantastic news that this is going ahead

(People may notice the Supporters of Skaiti page

I'm definitely in! Anyone gonna join me or fancy being my pit crew?

Jo, do you know if they'll allow BBQ's on site? There're some awesome films in the charts at the moment. How did I miss Ozombie? An Osama Bin Laden zombie movie! Or Strippers Vs Warewolves - Twitter Status

Re:24hr Top Gear Ultraskate - April 10/11 - 12:00 14 Feb 10 So thrilled you got this organised Jo and thanks for the invite.

Might be worth posting on the Serpentine Road Forum, and the Londonskaters Speed Team Forum if you are happy with rollers turning up.

I will certainly be along in some capacity. Probably to do a few laps and support you all, but I will not be there for 24 hours.

Hey Citizen, come and skate with us for as little or as much of the 24 hours as you like, it's an amazing place.

Thanks for your help Dan

and thank you for your donation - we are now at 2% of our total so a bit of a way to go yet

Re BBQ's I'm sure that off the ground BBQ's that don't damage the grass would be fine but I will check that and confirm for you.

Hey MCS, thanks for the other forum details, I'll get on to them straight away. We're really keen for rollers to come along, skaters of all kinds are more than welcome so please spread the word. We want 250 rollers and skaters on the track! More skaters means more fun and money for Haiti which is what it's all about.

Vix, you could see how many hours you can manage on your wheels

Or time yourself over a marathon or do a one hour challenge or whatever you like. Or just come and chill with us on the day!

If anyone is reading this and can't make the event, please do still donate money at www.justgiving.com/Skaiti24 to support us. Some of us are going to be going all night

Thanks - Jo
