Sorry, its now sold!
-
Due to lack of use, i've decided that my buggy deserves a new home, so i'm selling up. Its currently on ebay here but open to offers. Chameleon Pagona Custom Parakart/kite buggy Full racing kite buggy with additional disc wheels for hard surface racing. Also included camber adjusters and spare bearings. The buggy is a customized Pagona made from full stainless steel. The photos show it in lowered and full length but it has a lot of adjusters to suit a variety of shapes and sizes. Excellent for racing or just cruising as its very comfortable. Note the disc wheels bearings have seized but with some elbow grease should be removable. Any questions please get in touch Collection only, cash preferred.

I hope something gets sorted... All set this year to win my place on the national squad!!!!

Dudes, As many of you know i wasnt playing at the Supercup, but that did mean i could blow the dust off my camera and get some shots in. They arent great (light wind and grey skies never photo well!) but they are in the X-Zone Gallery now! So what are you waiting for? check out http://www.x-zone.co.uk and our new gallery!

Cos i was away from home they gave me x-rays to take to my local A&E and couldn't resist some photos at home!
-
Ok here is the proof. For those of a nervous disposition look away now! http://www.x-zone.co.uk/files/NinjaGettingCollared.jpg

Thanks all - its getting emotional! Just goes to prove how cruel Mother Nature can be... Looks like i'll be digging out my stick kites and blowing the cobwebs off! Not sure about the weekend yet, but the lure of liquid pain killers might do it :cool:
-
Find out tomorrow. could be 6 weeks though...

I'll have to make it shoulder mountable Basically kite luffed as i was parked and i was shot out of the buggy like a spud and landed on my shoulder/head. All went a bit blurry then!
-
I just want to say a huge thankyou to everyone that helped scrape me off the beach on Sunday and especially to Big John for putting up with 4 hours in A&E! Bust my collar bone good and proper and banged my head pretty well too! I'll survive with plenty of pain killers and TLC, but doing everything one-handed sucks!! Thanks again and hopefully see everyone soon....

Castle farm is alright, when the football posts arent up! And Abbey Fields is alright for a laugh if the wind isnt too gusty. Not been out for ages as i knackered my shoulder and didnt fancy boarding through goal posts! Chatting with a couple of other guys and thought we could set up the KKK or K3 (The Kenilworth Kite Klub) Roll on the summer when i can get out after work - weekends are scarce:mad:
-
So is there a list of places we can book into? If were not allowed on the beach i'll need to sort something out asap!
-
We just might be able to help We've had to produce one for EVERY single X-Zone event:eek: It would obviously need modification for your specific site, but if interested let me know and i'll what i can dig up.....

We used to buggy THROUGH them! http://www.x-zone.co.uk/ig/show.php?imageNumber=141&log=true

Dudes, If you have a number on your buggy - great. If not all we need is to identify you uniquely if you are racing - therefore we generally suggest you use your BBC number (as is, ie "1234") or we can let you know your X-Zone number if you wish. As long as they are legible from a few metres thats all we need. Sides and/or back is best position.

I bet when youre 80 3 miles an hour will feel fast... But yeah the term "speed" is obvoiusly used in its loosest sense!
-
I'm sure they'd have to create a club first...

Looks like we'd better watch our backs.. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/3931731.stm

Supercup has no scrutineering before hand, but the PKA do. All they seem to do is check for sharp edges, points etc that you could impale yourself (or others!) on. As most of the top pilots modify and customise their own buggies you could say they were almost all home-made so no worries there At the end of the day its what you feel comfortable with and race best in.

Damn that was fun! Swannies GPS read 45.4 mph and covered 50 miles in the 2 hours and he was a lap behind me and two on Steelie! I have never hurt so much as yesterday morning (I have a bruise the size of a rugby ball in my right arm!). Still well worth. Good one Gray, Johnny and the girls!

I've got that axle! Damn heavy (mostly due to the HUUUUGE metal attachments). Its a nice idea and looks the mutts but doesnt quite work.... There is no dampning of the suspension, so yeah it absorbs the knocks, but then it goes into some harmonic motion and you keep bouncing!! Get seasick after a while..... Also when putting the buggy sideways to slow down the wheels tend to skip over the sand as the carbon bounces and you get horribly jarred. Graham Steel also managed to break the first one (it was a bit long as well) - i think its a wooden core wrapped with carbon and it just snapped. Way ahead seems to be proper suspensio (see the Viper buggies) as you can control the bounce... now thats an expensive toy..

I say we go 100 miles offshore then!!!!!!!!!!! Or to the pub..........
