WE ARE LIVE!
New layout is up and running. A more summery colour scheme and some text links at the bottom of the page for better usability. Started working on getting the photography page to look better as well as sorting out the products page. Added a few more images into various pages such as the about page to make it slightly less dull and boring.
Here is a little video I made last spring and never got around to putting on the site. Its not very good and I made it in a day, but its something to use up space!
I have also fixed a few little errors such as the submission form and image uploader so thats all working now. If you experience any problems in the new layout, please let ascensionbmx know so we can sort it out for you. Feedback in book!!!

RACE AGAINST MOYE DETAILS
The Race Against The Moye starts at 1pm on Sunday.
The idea is for 20 odd riders to chip in 2 quid, winner takes all...40 quid...
Race begins at top of Foxholes hill and any route can be taken to Hertford North.
Zoo York recently did this through rush hour traffic resulting in anarchy. Moye is predicted to win our version. Put on your biggest sprockets and try to beat him.

Final trans am jam/big daddyage
I've been meaning to get this online for a while now. This bowl has beene replicated somewhere up in Scotland. I would give anything to ride it.
Something you should read.
Here's an extract fomr an article i've just read on the biker/skater debate. It's really good and i encourage you to read it all. here.
I would like skaters to realize a couple of things: skating and BMX aren't so different from each other, at least in the feeling each gives you, right there, behind your sternum, where your heart beats.
Bikers are going to ride no matter what, just like skaters are going to skate. Legal or not, we're not going to go away. "I got arrested for riding there when I was 14," Ratima says of the Daly City skatepark. "They took my bike and threw it in the back of the car. I just kept going every day, and finally they just gave up."
"I've ridden bikes on vert," Thrasher editor Jake Phelps tells me during a phone conversation. "I can ride a bike in a pool, I can do that. I'm stoked when I ride a bike in a pool. Feels hella fun to me. Catching air on a bike is awesome, no doubt about that."
This, from the longtime editor of the bible of the "fuck BMX" set. It's either baffling or heartening. I can't decide which. "I don't mind people that are just regular," he says. "If they're skateboard people or they're bike people too, I'll respect anybody that respects me."
That's what it comes down to: respect. I respect the fact that skateboarders did not come into this age of skateparks easily. I faded out when there was nothing, and I came back when they were in small towns across America, and I missed all the politicos and dreary meetings. It's time for bikers to stop feeling like second-class citizens and demand a seat at the table. In the words of Black Flag, it's time to rise above.
