KiteBoyStu Posted May 18, 2009 Report Posted May 18, 2009 Hi there, Sorry to jump into your thread like this but I think you'll thank me for it... A group of us have started a new uk kite club and have just secured a 60acre flying site on the top of a hill near you guys, we have exclusive use of it for two years. Its spread over two fields, one 15 acres the other 45 acres and its near here: MK41 6AE Although we're based in Wiltshire our aim is to secure several sites accross the uk and offer club membership/insurance that betters BPKA etc. We already have two huge sites in Wiltshire and several more across the UK under discussion also. Please check out our site, log in, introduce yourself on the Newbie section and find out how you can start flying there (and other places). http://forum.windywoos.com The more people that simply log onto our site (FREE) and say hello in the Newbie Section, the more sites we can secure. If we get enough people onboard we can approach the MOD again for use of their land, but we need a few more names on the members list (FREE to join like I said). Quote

Truknut Posted November 18, 2009 Report Posted November 18, 2009 Don't think so Dom...... Shame really. Quote

Dangerboy Posted January 29, 2010 Report Posted January 29, 2010 Hi Folks, Its been a while since I was last on this forum or even been out buggying. Whats the kiting like at Upton these days - any restrictions? Quote
newmski Posted January 29, 2010 Report Posted January 29, 2010 (edited) Hi Dangerboy. I haven't been to upton since they finished building. I never had any problems apart from the occational ankle biting mutt. Edited January 29, 2010 by newmski Quote

What bans are currently in place round the Northampton area and which places and suitable for buggying? Quote
