Seeing this level of support reminds me why I started this exhausting fight in the first place. The road ahead remains steep but knowing I have people behind me makes the weight a little easier to carry.

As a properly supervised track with health and safety. There are such like places in other parts of the country that are very safe and successful. It would be great for the ares and would help other local businesses

Historically the flappit was used for many many year without major incident. Since its closure I have continuously read in the news about nuisance riders in residential areas.

Reopen the flappits But take control this time.. Make a circuit/track that is marked out for the motocross lads. And leave the rest open to free roam for the enduro/4x4 community.
