    wrong place dude.
    do it in sligo or dublin, big city.

    honestly i would kill for a decent dirt trail here in blanchtown, even pay.

    talk to your local council, tell them you want to open a youth sports centre, they will even give you money for it.
    collect signatures? go around and talk to people? survey?

    bmx or skate isnt big in ireland, yet.
    but if you've the balls you could actually be one of the first who do and organize anything.
    open a bmx/skate indoor, bmaybe make the park free or small membership fee and have a shop next to it?
    get rights to redistribute specific bmx's and parts throughout ireland? (simple bikes etc.)

    the age of rugby/footie is over anyway so ;D

    i just moved to blanch recently and still waiting for my ride, and when itll be here ill dig blanchardstown up properly with some awsome dirts.

    the market will be big in 2/3 years.

    but with all the gay health safety regulations it will suck :/
    kneepads...seriously...

    Buzzman78, there is a phrase that is very true here in Ireland, as I can certainly vouch for it with my business, ... if you have it, they will come...

    You will need to take a long term view of it though, as these things take time to bed in and for word to get around.

    I am thinking of making a BMX track or a ramp area when I get the time!
    :cool:
