We regret to announce that Live 2 Ride will not be taking place this Summer. Do not despair, Live 2 Ride will be back bigger and better next year! Apologies to those of you who had alredy set the weekend aside to come down;
Yes, that's right. The Live 2 Ride 2008 dates have now been confirmed
for the 23rd-24th of August down at Grendon Lakes in Northamptonshire. It
is
still
early days so teams and a full list of events for the weekend are yet to
be announced.
As we start planning and looking ahead to this year's Live 2 Ride,
what better way to get motivation than look back at last year. If your memory
is as bad as mine you will require visual stimulation. Fortunately for us
the Guys at FrontEdge.tv have
cut several podcasts to make reminiscing that much easier! Click

the Teaser and Here for
Part 1
The live2Ride peeps would also like to say a big thanks to the
boys at Riot Gear. These boys not only added to the party, and made
all the spectators
look good with their trendy threads on sale, but supported L2R financially
too!! What more can you ask for. Check their website (www.riotgear.co.uk)
for info of their clothing (could make an awesome xmas pressie).
Check out Hours Clothing's video coverage of this years L2R Event.

who
took part in last weekends Live 2 Ride festival. We all hope you had a good time
and enjoyed what was probably the entire summer crammed into 2 days.
Even though the pigs shut us down early, the music was excellent,
so a big thanks to the DJ's and band for supplying our ears with tunes
to supress the voices in my head that tell me to burn things... well,
anyway... Thank you to all the sponsors, organisers, riders and anyone
else who
came
down
to chill
out for the weekend, we look foward to seeing you all at next years
event!

3. Warriorz
4. Northern Monkeys

2. Red I
