totaly agree rich.250 that place baldu is dangerous, the 4x4 have even started making home made bull bars out off steel girders. the majority of the bike riders i think are quite considerate towards the 4x4 but on most occasions with no return consideration. i have three young boys learning to ride and most weekends take my eldest on his pit bike for the whole day, he has nearly been struck several times by the 4x4 squad.

I was also preasent the day the ktm was written off by a 4x4, that pulled out into the side of the biker.The driver was out of control after completing a climb and had a 4x3 steel girder structure fitted to the front of the vehicle which struck the bike, if that was a child i cant see them getting up from bing hit by such a structure. I will also not be returning to put mine or my childrens life on the line.

Anyone that takes thier child riding at baldu please stop somebody is gonna be killed.

no mate i dont think you understand the owner isnt prepared to do a vice-versa unless we can get 50 or more riders in a club and pay £10 per week each on direct debit so you pay even if you dont ride there, the 4x4s would have to agree and also form a club, that works out at 52 grand a year so its profit over safty you see, so the idea of the blog is to stop riding there so he sees the error of his ways cheers.

yeh it is mate.

we need all the help we can get to make baldhu a safer and better place to ride.. i have no problems with 4x4`s i know they wreck the ground more than bikes but we need to keep places like this open.. so if we have to share then lets make it a safer place..
im planning a meeting for all people that ride the place or have riden there in the past in early sept.. hopefully people will show there support and turn up.. what do you riders say ???????????????????????????????

if you want this place to stay open then we are going to get as many people as poss at baldhu on sat 12th sept at 1pm to discuss what people want from the place...   show your support come have your say on how we use this facility before we loose it....

well how was the meeting,to be honest i think your just making hassle for us bikers we suffer already from lack of places to practice,and a load of bikers upsetting him aint gonna do us any favours is it.everyone that knows baldhu knows its just a free for all place,4x4 included yet you choose to ride there at your own risk. dont get me wrong it would be great to have seperate days from the 4x4's but that just aint gonna happen.has anyone been on the 4x4 forums and seen how much buisness he gets from them,group 4x4 meets, days out etc etc and all regular,weigh that up compared to the number of bikes that go there and i can see the outcome of who he would rather keep out.us bikers would not even dent his pocket compared to the 4x4 lads.please think about what your doing you will soon be pissed off if he makes it a 4x4 site only.

hi rich to answer yor question"would i be happy if myself or my mates were knocked off by a 4x4"of course not but we know the risks before even entering the gates,im with you that i think it would be better just dont want another place lost to bikes,i'll tell you now the farmer is a friend of a friend in the farming community (which is why i registered with a fake name)and he is hacked off at the minute and its not from the 4x4's now i would never be stopped from riding there but i dont want others spoiling it for themselves.as for him losing buisness well im told thats just not happening.as the 4x4 crew  are growing stronger each month im all for what your doing really am just dont think its doing anything but hacking him off good luck if you can change it up there then great.and vice versa if i hear anymore from the farmer ill let you know in advance

Baldhu is a brilliant place to go and practice , probanbly the best place around. When you come in you sign the entry board thing so that means you are enterin at your own risk. if you are afraid to get into a crash dont come. The 4x4s dont even go fast i have been ridin there for a year and a half and i havnt even had a close call to one .
