dirtparkorg (Oct 24, 2011 at 6:31)

there is no chance something wrong will happen. it had been used before to cover the tennis courts for about 10 years so no worries guys Smile

gobigorgohome, I've heard its possible to get from Berlin to Warsaw on one tank.

easily. driving an eco diesel (5-6l per 100km) it's not that hard. with two bikes on the roof - not that easy.

AlexRose (Oct 24, 2011 at 9:06)

If it's built properly, then it should be fine. But like Dirt parkorg mentioned, its just a visual and therefore will probably be a bit wider. Looks like a super sick park though!

Philler (Oct 24, 2011 at 12:43)

@true biker face first i thought you had some WW2 Reference Germany Poland in one Tank (ah so Bad)... Its like 600 km or 350 Miles from Berlin to Warsaw you can easily do it by car. Come to Europe and start a Roadtrip everything is reachable by car and its so much fun with the right Dudes by your side. You can drive to Austria Italy Spain and so on...

winko (Oct 24, 2011 at 2:18)

Indeed, but winters in BC are long and cold... (Think this is what wesleyrobinson had in mind)

Joebohobo (Oct 24, 2011 at 2:25)

oh, atleast you have lots of jumps though for the summer

+ 1

wesleyrobinson (Oct 24, 2011 at 7:53)

Yeah we do have a lot of jumps in summer and spring but winter is difficult, definitely need an indoor place with more jumps.

c-bernier (Oct 24, 2011 at 8:22)

Or at least for the air dome to be open year round.

dirtparkorg (Oct 24, 2011 at 3:57)

oczywiście. budowa trwa mniej więcej w godzinach otwarcia - 11-22. weź ciuchy dirtowe - będziesz miał okazję dorzucić swój szpadel do powstania tej jedynej w swoim rodzaju miejscówki Smile

It looks abit smaller in the photos than in the plan images

dirtparkorg (Oct 24, 2011 at 2:58)

the spot is being made exactly 1:1 accoring the visuals. thats probably the effect of diffrent lense in the photo camera than in 3d rendering program Smile

jamesxciv (Oct 24, 2011 at 11:29)

Fair enough, looks like it should be good anyway

dirtparkorg (Oct 24, 2011 at 3:59)

we're not lucky. we've been working hard to make it happen. the spot is made for riders by riders Smile

WAKIdesigns (Oct 24, 2011 at 4:48)

C'mon bog1dan - you are from Romania, you should know that nothing is easy on this side of the curtain, with beaurocrats and authorities with mentality that hasn't changed a bit since 30 years... I probably can't even imagine the bllsht they had to go through to get a land, permission and funds to build this. Funds are usualy easiest to find.

+ 2

dirtparkorg (Oct 24, 2011 at 4:58)

we've been working on this project for about 1,5 year. as you wrote, nothing was so easy, funds neither, but mentality built on several years of dirt jumping gave us power to make it happen against all odds Smile

woodsroller Plus (Oct 24, 2011 at 5:24)

This would be difficult to put together anywhere. Congratulations on doing it on the other side of the "curtain", as WAKI pointed out.

nandika15 (Oct 24, 2011 at 8:55)

bog1dan put your hands to a shovel or a digger and you will be lucky too! Wink

bog1dan (Dec 15, 2011 at 2:03)

nandika15. Seems to me we're in the same place . It's not about the shovel or digger . It's about the space . 1300 square meters is a lot of space .

+ 1

nandika15 (Dec 15, 2011 at 4:03)

nu trebuie 1300 m pt cateva trailuri... in locul tau as merge la un codru si acolo as face cateva trailuri si gata, sau tabletopuri Smile

aaaa inteleg pt tine/voi nu ajunge un trail sau 2 trailuri, pt voi trebuie un loc de 1300 m Wink

de asta nu so sa aveti nimic niciodata, si da ala ca nu vreti munciti ca sa aveti ceva, vreti sa fie gata:> nah good luck pt locul 1300 m:>

bog1dan (Jan 18, 2012 at 6:27)

@Nandica15 - speek in english , so anyone could understand .
for others - translation from Nandika : you don't need 1300 sq m for some trails .... In your place I would go to a forest and there i would make some trails and jumps ......oooohh I understand , for you (referring to me ) , a trail or two isn't enough , you need a place with 1300 sq m , that's why you don't have nothing , and that's why you don't want to work to have something , you want it to be done ...

I hope that you understand something from my translation .
My response : Nandika ! It's not about the work . It's about a land in the middle of the city . In a big city where a sq meter is expensive and where the officials don't let you build something .
Even Woodsroller , from US thinks this is a great and difficult job to put toghether .

Nandika thinks that he is great . He has a space at the country side . He build himself some jums and he is great . This dirtpark in Warsaw it's about something else , not some space at the country side .

Nandika , try to be polite and do not offend . We are here for bikes nor for any other reason . I don't think I know someone who ride a bike and it's lazy or stupid . Even if we are in a country with lazy and stupid people . You are in the same country as I am , even if you think you should be in another one , let's say Hungary .

nandika15 (Jan 18, 2012 at 13:51)

It's not about me, or about the place (because if you want, certainly find a place somewhere), it's about the people and about you Smile

. I just write my opinion from my experience about the romanian riders and the romanian people. For everyone to see, how is it the working here, haha: www.radiocluj.ro/uploads/pics/sanyi_csapatmunka_munkamegosztas_dolgozo_emberek_munkasok__manager_menedzser.jpg
I know, I'm very lucky with my garden and with my parents to let me build thoose trails, BUT it's about to DO SOMETHING, and not about to stay at home and wait for the solution!
So dear Bogdan, my message for you (and i say this from my experience with favour) is just to find a place, take a showel or a digger and do something!
Have a nice day!

bog1dan (Jan 19, 2012 at 4:09)

Man , You have a problem . You are also a romanian . Talk to the subject of the post not beyond . This post with the skatepark from Warzaw it's about something else than a space at a country side and a shovel and human lazyness. Try to undestand what's the subjet of this post from Dirtpark Org . All the people around the world are saying that this is a great thing , only you think that only with a shovel and some land you could do this .

WAKIdesigns (Jan 19, 2012 at 4:14)

I recommend you nandika15 (and everyone wanting to build anything for any biking) to watch this:

"All the people around the world are saying that this is a great thing , only you think that only with a shovel and some land you could do this ."
Man, i did not say this! I know it's the greatest! but let me ask you something... you have an opportunity for this in Bucharest???
I did say that just build a trail or two if you would ride on trails. You know, there is a proverb... who does not appreciate the small one it does not deserve the big one!

It's not worthy to argue over this, Bogdan, if you want build something or if not, wait for somebody to make it instead of you.

bog1dan (Jan 23, 2012 at 7:25)

For sure doesn't worth arguing with you .
